Let's Go To Prison! + Opening + Ride Needed

Journal Entry: Wed May 14, 2008, 2:50 PM
=b0r3d13 is trying to get to the meet from Santa Rosa. Is there anyone else coming from around there that could give him a ride? Please send him a note.


We have an unexpected opening for one person on the ferry. If you might possibly be interested in it the cost for the ticket is $24.50, payable at the meet. If you would like to have a place on the boat to Alcatraz, note `switchbladeserenade with "May devMEET" in the subject line. Do not comment here to request it, and do not note this account. This account is only checked every few days, and thus you might get passed by. :heart:



Alright, all systems are go. If you've confirmed with me, you're on my list! I need to RECEIVE your payments no later than the 16th of April, as I must pay by the 17th. If you have any questions about this, please note me at `switchbladeserenade!

Here's our attendees:

=BassDerek *paid*
=DJStrife *paid*
*jrl3001 *paid*
*rinnalynette *paid*
*lenawargo *paid*
=phessler *paid*
`rapidograph *paid*

=skankabella *paid*
=FreezeBlade *paid*
=drackar *paid*
~Ke- *paid*

We'll be meeting at Pier 33 no later than 11:30am, however I suggest you try to arrive at before then, especially if you've never been there before. I will be there from 11am onwards, so you can look for me. I will be wearing a dA t-shirt, and have Fella in my backpack.

At 12:32 our ferry leaves for Alcatraz, but they begin boarding at 12:00, which is why I suggested you get there by 11:30. It would be a crappy if you arrived only to find you can't get to us because we've already boarded, and now you're stuck being left behind. (By the way, tickets are non-refundable.. so do try to be there on time)

Once on the Island we will walk from the docks to the prison. There is an audio tour we can take, or we can go it on our own. The Island staff has requested that we do not bring tripods, or excessive camera gear, as it would interfere with other people's enjoyment of the island.

From start to finish the tour should take us about 2 hours, maybe more than that, but it depends on how long we stop in each area of the prison. There is also alot of grounds to explore, as it's also a wild bird sanctuary.

Once we're finished with our tour, we'll head back to the mainland. Should be about time for a late lunch/early dinner. We can head to Fisherman's Wharf, where they have gift shops and restaurants. There are food places to fit everyone's budget, and I imagine we'll scatter a bit depending on how much you want to spend on food. After that we'll meet back up and do some wandering through the shops and head down to Ghiradelli Square. There are many street artists along the way, and there is also an aquarium if we wish to go have a look in there. At the end of the day, the ones who are over 21, will end up at a pub (the name of which completely eludes me at this time) where they'll have enough seats to accommodate us all.

I'll update this periodically as the payments for the tickets arrive. I need them as soon as you can however.

And thank you to those who have already sent your payment for the ticket! :heart:

Hoping I survive living in San Jose long enough one of these days I'd like to give something like this a shot. :hmm:

There is more to being a decent critic than saying you like or hate something. Challenge yourself to say which things you like about something you are judging/doing a critique on, or what about it you don't.

Hi, it's Genji.

Thanks for hosting the August 19th devMeet. It was really neat meeting everyone who showed up. I'll definitely attend another! (That is, if I can get there -- I only have a bike to get around).

I hope everyone's school/work/vacation goes well in the meantime!

Peace!

still, let me know if you are planning one in the future. As long as I have ample notice, I should be able to attend.

As I noted in my previous quick note, I'm out in "the back forty" in the bigger Bay Area picture - way out in Tracy. While making it in to SF for anything is a genuine drive, I would be willing to extend an offer to other Bay Area dArtists to meet-up and tag-along on photo outings I make into the East Bay Area, should they be less-spontaneous enough to be able to offer advance notice about.

I also work throughout the Bay Area - especially SJ/south Peninsula (I'm a commercial electrician/foreman) - and would enjoy informal meets over coffee, if I'm in the local area. (starting in August, I'll be in San Mateo, not far from Hillsdale mall).

Just a thought...
:) Richard

Greetings from Sac.

I'm touring the country, getting to SF is not a problem here. :)

Hope to seeing you all.

Thought I'd stop by and say hello from Hollister. Umm, that's about an hour SOUTH of San Jose, so SF is a tad far, but I do occasionally splurge on gas and come into the "big city." :)
~darstar:icondarstar: May 30, 2007, 3:50:31 PM
'ello thar :) I'm near Santa Rosa. I'll try to make it to a meet, depending on where it is.
