Many thanks to Otto and Baby Doe for pulling this all together. Your blood, sweat and tears, were evident and appreciated, everyone knows it was tough to get everything buttoned up this year on such short notice, many thanks, it can't be said enough.

This was the first year at this venue so it was the great experiment on many levels. Next year, we'll know what we are in for and what to expect.

It was great to visit the Bali Hia, damn those drinks were strong, and the bus ride was quite an adventure-the artic air and running through red lights--eek!

Thanks to the entertainers for fantastic performances; all the vendors for sharing their wonderful talents and wares; all the awesome people who opened up their rooms and shared their hospitality!

It was great to see old faces and see new ones. Many faces were not present and were truly missed.

My only regrets:

1. not getting an Oasis 6 mug :( (too bad we couldn't pre-order)
2. not being able to visit all the crawl hosts
3. lack of sunshire (Damn that San Diego May Gray)
4. sore feet
5. all of being so spread out in the hotel
6. not taking enough pictures
7. leaving and not saying goodbye and thank you to nearly enough people

P.S. Hau Oli Tiki - thanks for getting the ext. cord back, found it on our door handle the next morning -- that flaming tiki was pretty awesome, I'm glad we were able to help!
