TLDR: Had a blast and really, really wanna go again next year!

So I got to fully enjoy Vancoufur 2026 this year the right way.
Started off my having booked a hotel for the entire duration of the con - stayed right there on property connected to the con space.
Was really nice cause I could easily go back to the room and chill in-between events and all that.
Also got the meal tickets for a couple of the days to help with me not spending too much extra money on food xD and the food provided was pretty good overall. Would most likely do the meal plan again if I go next year.
Met up with a couple of people I had talked to online and also just chatting with random peep was also fun - never really a dull moment.
Went to the bird meet up, the cat cardboard meet, did bingo, did the trash animal meet hosted by Zee the Raccoon.
Bought too much at the dealers den.
Checkout out many other things and panels too - was a good time - even though some panels were SO FULL that myself and some others got turned away :( Oh well - the con did have over 3k people! So its not that surprising xD
Even did the dead dog dance on Sunday xP Though I was pretty wiped by then and only made it to just after 11pm! Music was on point, so it really aded to the vibes of the evening - would try and go to some of the other dances throughout the con next year...but I'll be honest I ain't got the same energy as I used to and felt like I needed a nap some days!! xD
But yeah, felt good about everything.
A much better experience then my first fur con ever - but looking back I know why I didn't have as much time waaay back in 2013 vs. now.
So yeah... looking forward to 2027 <3
