So it's just about a week after my first fur con and AnthroCon experience and I had a blast!
I have never been to Pittsburgh before to actually stay and enjoy the city and it was awesome to be able to walk around and drink in the sights. There's a lot of amazing architecture and a wide variety of styles; not to mention the buildings were able to cast some really interesting shadows throughout the day which made for some really awesome photo opportunities.
I think my goals for the next fur con I go to will be to take more pictures of fursuiters (I have a surprisingly small amount of pictures of suiters; I guess I was just too shy about approaching people for a photo op, whoops) and to actually go to some panels. XD
I didn't go to any panels at all; its a shame but it was also really hot and humid outside and between feeling gross, having uncomfortable shoes (RIP my feet), and needing to re-apply sunscreen every time I wanted to go outside I ended up not really catching much of the other stuff at the con besides the Dealer's Den and the raves at night.
I did make some new friends though, and it was both nerve-wracking and exhilarating the first day meeting people I had only chatted with online before the con. I did have tons of other fun too in the form of room parties, roaming around PGH, and going to a bar so all in all I would say it was a great success.
I'm trying to see if I can save up some money and maybe make it to Furpocalypse, which happens to be about 15 minutes from where I live, oddly enough.
What are some of your favorite conventions (furry or otherwise) you like going to? Any recommendations you might have for future cons I would want to check out?
