My best experiance at pinkfest was without a doubt found in our hotel
room, chatting with old and new friends, finding our similarities and
our differences.

Lynda made the comment online that it would be nice if somehow we all
could end up in the same hotel so we could get together and just talk.
I'm not sure how that would really work, but I've got to admit - the
best activity was when we were doing just plain nothing and getting to
know each other

Rudy was just wonderful - If we could somehow work it out to show up
next year if he's around I'd love it. 1 night next time tho ;) Don't
care for the other Gentry tho.. I get a bit uneasy in small corners and
we ended up in the same end of the room last year. All the piano seats
were taken again :(

>How was your hotel? Would you recommend it to others next year?

Just fine - Lyn even tipped the cleaning lady if I'm not mistaken ;) No
problems through the lobby/elevators/deskpeople/resteraunt - nowhere

>Did you like the places where we ate and drank?

Yes I'm the one that wanted a steak dammit! <lol> And I'd love to try
the Chop House next time. Ann Sathers had the most wonderful fresh
asparagus :)

Ed's - oh dear ed's.. yea, well that place is just ed's - we need to do
something other than dinner time on a Friday that's for sure :) btw,
excellent "kitchen sink Nacho's" and chocolate shakes mmmmm :).

>other things would you like to see in Pinkfest?

Every single user of the channel would be nice :) I'd love to meet all
of them. I'm another one of the social ones that would rather chat than
dance.. never mind the dance part.. I just won't do that :) Loud music
is a good thing, but dance music is far from my taste and I just would
rather enjoy each other's company better.

>Any particular problems or concerns you had?

does getting lost looking for the bar 1/2 a block away count? I walked
for quite a few blocks looking for that place after I parked Vanessa's
car, and talked with a few people on the street... no problems at all

Thanks all of you for making this happen for all of us *hugs*
