Er lisa, isn't that a rather scheduled kind of day for something that was going to be rather laid-back, who's around, let's get together? And it's all supposed to be cheaper than just a casual lunch in MB?
I'm not sure how lunch in MB is expensive or no view, given the pier & ocean is right there, but my 2cents (which is about all it's worth given I can't make it due to wedding up north) is figure out where the majority of the folk are & meet there. DEK can always catch a shuttle bus (the free one) to MB if that's the place - or if Huntington is the plan, then lisa can pick him up.
Anyway, have fun - see you next time DEK. Cheers.
Sharon
