The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 I’m visiting the US next month. I’ll be going to New York, Atlanta, Austin and Dallas/Fort Worth. No secret about this – I’m coming over because I’d like to meet lots of fellow Organissimo members. So, if you’re going to be around anywhere near where I’m going, PM me and let’s try and get together. Here’s my detailed itinerary. Fri 2 April – arrive New York (actually the previous evening) Thurs 8 April – leave New York for Atlanta Mon 12 April – leave Atlanta; lunch in Austin Sat 17 April – leave Austin, lunch in Ft Worth Thurs 22 April – Leave DFW evening. I doubt if I’ll be contactable in New York, since I don’t have a phone number for the hotel, so if you want to meet, please PM me with a contact phone number and I’ll try to work out what a dial tone, ringing tone and engaged tone are ! I think I should be contactable elsewhere. Here’s where I’ll be staying and phone numbers: In Atlanta, I’ll be at the Highland Inn – 404 874 5756 In Austin, I’ll be at America’s Best Value Inn, Austin South – 512 441 0143 In Fort Worth, I’ll be at the Park Central Hotel – 817 306 2011 Greatly looking forward to this trip.

JohnS Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 (edited) Sounds like a good trip. Have a great time, We always do in the US. I should be on my way there in the summer, after visiting my brother in law in the Bay Area we hope to head towards the east of the Sierras an then up to Oregon, a state we've not visited so far.

AllenLowe Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 wish I could get down, but will be in Seattle part of that time and stuck in Maine the rest - of course, I could send a bunch of guys with a car with tinted windows and a blindfold and have them drive you up here - but then I would have to kill you if you saw any landmarks.

Peter Johnson Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Agree with the NYC meetup idea--would have to be that weekend (April 2-4) for me, though, fwiw. MG, I'd like to meet up. I'll send you a PM and we'll see what we can do. Any otherNY/NJ folks, can we get a group together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot Ptah Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 (edited) Too bad that you are not extending your trip just a little bit north of Dallas, to Kansas City. There's a group of us here who would fill you up with Arthur Bryant's barbecue! Edited March 10, 2010 by Hot Ptah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son-of-a-Weizen Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Geez, you're gonna miss the height of the Cherry Blossom Festival in DC. What's the matter? You scared of Japanese tourists or somethin'???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You scared of Japanese tourists or somethin'???? I missed the cherry blossoms when I went to Japan 8 years ago. But I didn't miss the Japanese tourists - they were everywhere! Well, of course, I was largely in tourist places (except for the record shops) too MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chas Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Too bad that you are not extending your trip just a little bit north of Dallas, to Kansas City. Kansas City is "just a little bit north of Dallas" in the same way Aberdeen is a just a little bit north of Portsmouth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
