The Planetarium is pretty nice, but really not much once you get over it. I suggest meeting first in Central Park, at the lake near the Plaza-right near Columbus circle- and from there go to the Upper East Side- which is only really several blocks. So, we can have a walking experience as well...walking always helps us to bond. Or maybe we could just eat at Tavern on the Green. Or am I overdoing it? That's really expensive. Meeting at Lincoln Center is another idea, or perhaps in the village. I've never really been to the village myself, so it would be nice. If all else fails, we could meet on the Promenade in Jersey City, really a high-class place, right next to the Holland Tunnel. Wait! I have it! Rockefeller Plaza! We can eat somewhere on 5th avenue after saying our athesitic chants in St. Patricks'. Oh dear...I've gone manic.
If all else fails, we can just go to Pine_net's hometown of VA Beach and stay at the opulent Cavalier Hotel! I've stayed there, and it rocks! We could hit the Boardwalk, see the aquarium, and....um....take daytrips to Busch Gardens. Well....Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!

Rockefellar center sounds good to me. It's a big place, so big that maybe those of us that actually go would have to lay out precise instructions while actually being there...or not.Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!

Hopefully. I'm definitely going, I just have to make sure my parents are cool with it. I'm pretttyy sure that they are but I'm not exactly positive about what's gonna go down when we get there 'cause I'll be cut off from the internet.
Oooh, just discovered this thread. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! A little too far for me to come, but I have a few quesitons: have you lot ever met each other before? Is it seriously gonna happen? Are you gonna take loadsa pictures and post them up?
I'll bring my digital camera. Do we have a tally of who's coming? So far I think for certain that it's just me and Pine_Net. Maybe Congrats too... I think it's seriously gonna happen. And no. I might have actually seen the legendary orthogonal but I wouldn't have known it, he said once that he came to my home town on vacation.
