So yeah, went to FC after taking a year off from the con and man what a difference time can make XD

The new space was rather nice, I like how the main hotel and overflow were connected through the convention center. Not that it mattered, it was so sunny and warm out we rather enjoyed taking the long way over some times (We were at the Hilton)

Speaking of we, this was Tyger's first trip out to the west coast and I think she rather enjoyed it judging by the number of times she requested to move out there =p

The con was a lot of fun, had a great group of people to hang with ^_^ Was worried about any awkwardness at first but those fears were unfounded, it was actually rather amusing XD

If I seemed a little downcast it's because I've been battling this damn thing in my throat. I wasn't sick but I think I injured it with something at some point, it just ached the whole damn time and was so dry I was coughing a lot. Was just annoying XD It's also why I really didn't drink much, I didn't know what was wrong and didn't want to make it worse, probably the dryest con for me in years XD

I'm not going to make this journal too long, just going to talk about some of the highlights =)

- Spending another con with Tyger, that's always a highlight in and of itself <3

- The city of San Jose, warm and inviting (as long as you don't stray too far XD). It really is a wonderful place for a convention and so much better where it is now than when it was at the Doubletree. And it still feels more laid back, more informal even though I know there's so much going on behind the scenes. Anyone looking for a good first con experience should consider this one.

- Seeing all my pals again, especially those I don't get to see too often and those who I met for the first time this con. You all are awesome and I wish we could get together for more than just conventions.

- Suiting was a lot of fun, it's the first really major convention where I've had my fullsuit ^^ Even the volleyballers enjoyed it, lol. If anyone has pictures of me in suit I'd love to see them =)

- The Adult Dragon Panel was a lot of fun this year, Tyger enjoyed presenting her works. I think the dragons liked her.. maybe a little too much >.> *glares*

- Fooood, yes I'm a dragon and I will talk about my food experiences XD We found some amazing places just by luck, such as the Iguanas Burritozilla where I had there red snapper fish burrito. This place was a hole in the wall but holy fuck was the food amazing. Then we found this place called Original Gravity thanks to suggestions from Omi and Mochi. This place serves poutine and french fries cooked in duck fat. Awesome. I have a food boner thinking about it again. But that's not all, they also have over a dozen of different kinds of selfmade sausages. Seriously, this place is like a heaven for dragons. And oh, it's also a pub with some interesting craft brew selections XD
And then there were the usual places furs go to but it's fun when you have a hoard of dragons descend upon Pita(Dragon) Pit or Fuji Sushi XD
Oh, and I also finally got taken along to Philz Coffee thanks to Wolfyisms. And this will be my go to coffee joint for all future FCs. They have a ton of different blends which I think they roast on site, I'm not sure. And when you order, they actually take the beans, grind them right there, and brew the damn coffee in front of you. Brilliant. Delicious.

- Drama Free! This con was drama free, at least for me XD And that's how it should be, stop spending all your money to go to a convention just to sulk and be emo.

And that's about all I can think of for now, thank you all who made this con so great, we're both looking forward to next year <3
