Otakon QC Meet Up

<< < (6/13) > >>

cesium133:
It's done that to me in the past... I got to the I-70/I-695 interchange, and had to suddenly decide whether the outer loop was north or south...

Oh, and be very careful about turning right on a red light. It's legal, but you'll get a ticket anyway.  :psyduck:

nekowafer:
You have to treat the red light as a stop sign. So you have to stop, look, THEN turn. Assuming there isn't a sign that tells you not to turn right at the red light.

Signs for 695 always say which direction you're taking it, and if you're using Google Maps, it will also tell you the direction you need. There are always mistakes with those sorts of map systems, certainly. But if I can navigate 695, as the mistress of terrible sense of direction, so can anyone else. And it's really just a big circle. If you go the wrong way, you can either get off and get back on the right way, or you can just follow it back around. NBD.

Anyway, were we thinking about getting food, or what? I really don't know where we can go that won't be overrun by otakus.

Lines:
From personal experience, it's kind of fun going to places overrun by nerds. Especially if they're in costume. Especially when it's in a place outside of the convention center. Oh the looks of passersby!

nekowafer:
Then we might want to pick a spot and meet up, and then we can find wherever will fit our little group. There are fish statues all over the place... maybe we can pick one of those.

nekowafer:
Got it! Let's meet at the little shaded area across the street from the World Trade Center. There are a couple benches there, but there shouldn't be a ton of people sitting around. Someone can wear a silly hat so we can recognize each other.

The WTC is at 401 E Pratt St, by the way, and you'd be crossing Pratt and sitting in front of the M&T Bank and whatever little cafe is there nowadays.
