I'll have 2 buses ready to go and possibly a third in the wings if needed. This many additional people means the tour must change slightly, which is why I pose the questions above. I mean, there's no way 100 people (or more) will fit in the grotto in the back of the South Pacific...so one bus would get there at 2 and leave at 4, the next one shows up at 4 and leaves at 6, etc. It gets complicated logistically. At least with the capacity at the Kowloon we know all of us would be together at some point. Now 100 people around the pool at the Tiki Resort in Lake George while a band plays Live exotica...a little easier, but is it what we want? Do we want an Oasis type event, or a Bus Tour event, or do we try to have the best of both worlds and do a little of each? JPM- Im with ya 100% but then what are the days? friday for the hotel scene, sat for the tour? How many people could take a friday off from work for the hotel hang? Or do we plan around a holiday weekend? Columbus day? Does a pool hang work in October? [ Edited by: Bargoyle 2007-08-27 10:57 ] [ Edited by: bargoyle 2007-08-27 11:11 ]
