When I first tried for the convention I missed out then got a second chance. After some thought and talking it over with friends and family (as it would be 1. expensive and 2. dad not so good.) We decided to go. By now the Haytt Hotel in Orlando where the convention was booked was full so we booked a hotel over the road at the Rosen Centre. Well it looked close enough although once we arrived and walked from one to the other it was a twenty minute walk.

We had planed to send Tuesday and Wednesday looking around Orlando but that never happened. Booking in for convention was from 2pm to 5pm on Wednesday so after a wander around and booking in we all needed an early night so it was back to the Rosen. This was so not what I had planned I had arranged to meet up with other convention goers from dinner and I had been hoping to do some room shopping but I knew the next few days would be jam packed so needed to sleep.
Thursday I trudged back over the the Haytt and the start of convention.

I had only booked one of the Tutorials on Tattooing, it was great fun and I'm looking forward to trying it out (one day)
So that was pretty much Orlando, to tired and blitzed out to meet up with friends in the evenings, to tired to go room shopping, to tired to go out and about.We never left the hotels!
I did get to do a little room shopping one afternoon actually for a couple of hours then I was in need of some rest! *sigh*
