Seattle in April!

[luzula]

I have now bought tickets for bitchinparty! Yay!

I'll arrive on the evening of the 31st of March and leave on the afternoon of the 11th of April. The reason I'm staying so long is that I want to have enough time before the con that I won't be half dead of jet lag, and it feels stupid to fly halfway across the world just for a weekend.

So if any of you Seattle people want to hang out with me, I would love to do that, and the same if anyone else is staying before or after the con. I also have acquaintances in Seattle from the time my family lived there, and I hope they remember me enough for me to visit them.

I'm planning to return to places that I have fond childhood memories of, such as Pike Place Market, the Burke Museum and Baskin-Robbins ice-cream. And I definitely want to spend some time doing nature stuff--for example, I might go out to the Olympic Peninsula for a couple of days. I would love to get advice on other places to go, though. Although keep in mind that I'm kind of limited by not having a driver's license.

Right, now I'm going to an entomological film festival. Yes, really.

I'm hoping to find a car and driver for a couple of days during that period; it's early to be making plans but not too early to plan to plan, eh?

Julia, need to buy a 2010 calendar today, I suspect.

Planning to plan, yes. That's about the stage I am at, too. Let's talk more about it later--I would love to go somewhere with you, if you're up for it! If not, you can always give me some advice about where to go.

LUZULA! I'm so excited!!!!! I live in Seattle, so I'll be around. I'll be working pretty hard to make up for the long weekend off, but maybe we could spend some time together the weekend before? Lemme know!

[luzula]

I'm not there the weekend before, but I'll be there the weekend after. Maybe we could do something then? That would be awesome!

It feels so strange to be going back. All my memories of the place are from when I was ten years old, so I wonder how it will be now. Anyway, I will totally ask you for advice on what to do. &hearts
