I'm glad to see that I will be in such good company next year! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Like others have said, I never thought I would spend the money to fly there, rent a car and hotel. However, it's WORTH it, a great experience and a LOT of fun! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I don't know if I will fly or drive next year, but I AM going!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Like I said, when I found out that the dinner is for families I thought this would make an awesome summer vacation next year.

We're talking about renting an RV and taking several days to travel, see seven states with our destination being Blade 2010.

I figure a year is plenty of time to plan and save up.

I'm excited already!

newDOGma - last year we spent a week there during Blade, with a couple of days before and after the show to do whatever we wanted. That's what we will do next year if we fly there. If we drive, we will stop by my son's home for a day or two near Huntsville Alabama. He is only about three hours from the show. Either way, it will be an anniversary/vacation trip for us. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

If this is going to be our big summer trip I'm glad to have a year to plan it.

It would be a bit of a waste to travel that far just for Blade.

I need to find out what Diners, Drive-ins and Dives recommends in each state we pass through! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Well, there are a LOT of food places near Blade! From Maggiano's (~$50.00 pp) to KFC, Olive Garden, McDonald's and Burger King, along with Sonny's Bar-b-Que and Fogo's(~$50.00 pp). Your family will be able to eat without breaking the bank! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> We will go to Olive Garden instead of Maggiano's, and Sonny's instead of Fogo's in order to save money (though their food is GREAT!). I have travelled with a family before. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Our thinking with the RV is that we can eat for cheap most meals, and splurge a little on some local cuisine!
