Free! Not advised after sunset. RAIDER'S LAW: If Raider's Law strikes again, the above has indoor and outdoor options. There is a local mall, Target and Walmart, as well as a giant shopping complex 30 minutes up the highway to replace any luggage lost. The airport is also very close to my place and the hotel, so delayed fliers will be easy to pick up. While there are lots of little old ladies in town, we shouldn't be riding public transportation at all, since most everything is within 15 minutes driving. There are also very few bridges to cross that we might be walking over. The biggest one we will be driving over, so things are also likely to stay in the vehicle. Posting the above makes me wonder what we'll be adding to Raider's Law from this meet. I'd shudder in worry, but really it was all just too funny. Perfect Delivery.

Boardgames are also an option, probably for evenings. I'll be bringing Risk and Thunderstone, a dungeon crawling card game. I may be able to bring some others as well. How does everyone feel about checking out Orlando, maybe on the Saturday that we're there? Theme parks are expensive, but if we're all interested, I'd be down for it. |

Britt knows way more about Orlando than I do, so activities there I must leave to her expertise. =) |

Dom, are you flying through Delta? If so, I think we've got the same flight out of Atlanta. I don't remember if it was Charleston or Atlanta, but one of the airports had a pretty cool sports bar in it. Here's my flight information Fri 17MAY LV 11:17am CLEVELAND AR 1:05pm ATLANTA DELTA 2317 LV 3:45pm ATLANTA AR 5:25pm MELBOURNE DELTA 2195 Mon 20MAY LV 3:07pm MELBOURNE AR 4:45pm ATLANTA DELTA 2213 LV 7:15pm ATLANTA AR 9:07pm CLEVELAND DELTA 2291 |

Okie dokie - Dom, Matt, this is for you guys. As much as I hate to ask you to do it, since you are both arriving at the same time, unless someone who is driving down is already here who can pick you up, you will need to spring for a taxi. Good news is, you're only going a few miles either to my place or the hotel, so it'll be cheap. Really cheap. Probably less than $20 cheap. Either that, or I pick you up one at a time and drive you to the location of choice. I'm sorry I don't have a big enough car to pick you both up in. =( |
