I booked a room at the overflow hotel.
Looking forward to meeting other travelers.

Back to the overflow hotel, which is still fine. I was caught by surprise at how early this got set up. Luckily, I got the news about the acquisition of The Frugal Travel Guy on Twitter. Congrats, Ingy.

Same procedure as last year in that those of us in the Host hotel will be in line for event tickets when sales start, ie, if I don't beat the crowd or am out of FT touch for a week or so, I'll still be able to buy a ticket based on my Host hotel reservation.

That I like, though I spend way too much time on here anyway. There's no way I'll miss the sales starting!

Thanks.
