I'm plenty willing to bring a bottle, but won't be showing up till around midnight.

Hey All

I think mono loco has a good question about sharing out the cost of the rum cider. The first 2 years there were 10 max now it looks like we might hit 30 people. Maybe we can put a donation jar Mono?

And if all else fails Mono we can just have everyone else buy us 1 drink each.... I think we will get sufficiantly pished with that Abzv

Minerguy, if you bring a bottle I am sure we will still be drinking and if all else fails there is usually left over cider we can make some for breakfast!!!! Trinque

See you all there, am soo excited I can't sit still Dancer

Just called and checked with the hostel, so far they have 15people who have confirmed and I have sneaky suspicion there should be a few more.

Please remember to say you are with the Bootsnall Group, this is to ensure you get the discount, and that you are all in with the party dorm (unless you want a private room because you think we smell....). Either way if you want the HI discount and free towels etc... remember to mention you are with Bootsnall party.

Mono,
Don't over burden yourself with the booze. You only need to buy one bottle. (Well, you don't need to buy anything, but if I were you I'd only buy one) We can always get more and you never know how many people are actually going to show up, want to drink and want to drink a cidery rum concoction.

Honestly, the cider and caramel and rum is just too sweet for me. I can drink maybe a cup. I'll either be bringing my own beer or won't be imbibing in the hostel.

I'm looking forward to seeing you all very soon! Smile

I'll bring one, too bad they haven't recognized Texas as a separate country yet so I could hit up duty free on the way out there.

cool - i'll make a liquor store run friday.

FYI - MAX service to the airport is down Sat & Sun, but they'll have shuttle buses (the MAX train will go most of the way then you have to switch to a bus)
