Travel arrangements

So, RomantiCon is that last weekend between Sept and Oct.

I'm trying to get to Akron by way of Toledo

Flying into Toledo? $320. And then we drive Naomi's car to Akron.
Bus into Toledo? $172 and I have to drive to Akron
Train? 267, 8 hour layover in Chicago, and I have to go take off Thurs, Fri, Sat and Tues.
Driving: 695 miles to Toledo, 14 gallons of gas. 130 more to Akron. Not so bad.


OTOH, direct to Akron is:
Flying: 320
Bus, 172
Amtrack is not an option
Driving, 724 miles

Hotel is $100/night
registration is $202/head.

This is going to be worse than Dragon for costs.

Movies for 2011

1) Into the woods. Stage production. Famous fairy tale characters come together in Sondheim's musical. Bernadette Peters stars. Really entertaining, music very complex. Little Red Riding hood steals the show.(p)

2) Fiddler on the Roof. Traditions are changing everywhere as Tevye the Dairyman deals with four daughters and Russian Pogroms. (p)

3) The Many Faces of Christopher Lee. The veteran actor talks about his career, and shows off trophies of it, including Dracula's ring and the last extant piece of the Wicker Man. (N/A)

Print!

I just checked the Ellora's Cave partial print plan for 2011.

GLAD HANDS and HEART OF A FOREST are on it! YAY!
