The TATL FTers arrived about 90 minutes ago from FRA.

Had a fab time yest exploring the A380, participating in focus groups, attending a great StarAlliance dinner and partner airlines there w/ lots of goodies & massage folk, followed by a private exploration for our group of the famous FCT.

And a fun flight today w/ FTers throughout the plane & moving from cabin to cabin chatting & just having fun.

For those going to the BBQ tonight, see you in the Sheraton lobby at 7pm. I'm going to look at the info StarwoodLurker provided & call them to give them a heads up they'll have quite a few folk showing up.

I think most will head back to the hotel afterwards either to their rooms if they're tired, and to the hotel bar if they're not.

See everyone soon!

Cheers.

Ok, just called the BBQ place to let them know we're coming. We have an area that can seat 35 that will be for us. I think it might be a bit of a cafeteria line in terms of ordering the food, but they bring it to the table etc. PS - it's under the name Sharon.

Cheers.

Thanks fo arranging this on the fly. Based on conversations in the lobby, we should have a decent-sized group. ^

The LH F section is quite spacious. We had six folks in two seats and it was still way more spacious than the economy seats I was actually assigned.

I gave a heads-up to the bell stand that we'll have about 35 folk going to the BBQ (just a guess) & we'd need either about 10 cabs to go over to Mo's BBQ or if they wanted to assign one of their shuttles for the trip, that would work too. So they're working on it on their end. I'll be in the lobby about 6:45pm to be around as folk arrive.

Cheers.

I am not going to the awards at the moment (registration is closed), and so am open to any suggestions. Can anyone recommend sightseeing or other fun activities that do not involve eating or drinking?

After quite the bumpy approach to IAH, CO47 has arrived to rejoin the party!

Several of us are waiting outside Term E for the Sheraton shuttle.

Tried to access your album from the Sheraton Link computers and got the following Facebook error: This content is currently unavailable. Not sure if it's just me?
