Let the fun begin!

Several DW fans on the flight from Austin, two were connecting from Baltimore! The flight was slightly mental, especially on the approach when we dropped altitude so fast several people shrieked. All the kids on the flight thought it was hilarious. Despite the rough landing, and a overhead baggage compartment flying open, we all made it safe an sound.

On the shuttle to the hotel we met the Gallifery head honcho Sean Lyon. He was there to meet Richard Franklin. Jessica instantly knew who he was as she has watched waaaay more of the classic series than I have. For all the new Who fans like me, he played Captain Mike Yates with the 3rd Doctor.

We've settled into our hotel room, very nice, and explored the hotel, gorgeous pool area, and gone to the liquor store, as evidenced by the picture. The bars close at 2am, but you can bring your own drinks. Hooray!!! We're going to pick up our badge at 6 and there's a meetup for Austin/Texas Who fans later tonight. Definitely looking forward to meeting more DW fans!

Gally Bound!!

Jess and I arrived at the Austin airport super early. I got maybe 3 hours of sleep and Jess has been up since 2am for work. We're running pure Doctor Who excitement!!! Well, that and coffee for me. Less than an hour till take off now and we've already checked Facebook, the Gally forums and #gally on Twitter! Damn I love social media. Update will be frequent throughout the con though pics my be slower in coming as the good ones will have to be uploaded when/if we get a moment to breathe. Hope everyone enjoys the updates and if you want a pic of something let us know.
