Aki Matsuri (Fall Festival), San Francisco Japantown, Oct 4-5 2008

[Oniko]

Sweet, so in Japantown.  Thats good because I didnt even know about the meeting area for the Cherry blossom one before the parade.

[kimu]

I'm planning to be there!
Not sure what to think about a lunch plan yet....

Mmm... I can't wait for the food! ♥

[RyuHayabusa]

Mmm... I can't wait for the food! ♥

call me asap cause i want to know if you want to come to the lunch gathering. :3 or send me a pm, cause that works too.

[chumichan]

Ah, Kimu! > u <
Are you going to cosplay? : D

[kimu]

I will be there Sunday.
I entered my Kenshin in the contest just for the fun of it.
(I wore Sairin at Cherry Blossom, wore Ukitake at the Treasure Island picnic, and Abel actually has a little more work to go before I'm entering a contest--so it had to be Kenshin this time.)

[Yukari Kaiba]

awesome, I'll be able to get pics of your Kenshin again (since I missed getting it at Fanime). I'm debating whether I want to enter the cosplay show or not, and if I do I'm not sure as who..might do Izuru since that will be finished for y-con this weekend..

Hey Ryu, I'll be there, and I was wondering if I could finally pick up my badge that I was supposed to pick up from you at fanime at the festival?

[kgHapa]

not gonna lie, never been to one of these either (though Im making up for all these missed events this year)
Out of curiosity is there a attendance fee?

[Yukari Kaiba]

I'm going to be at Yaoi Con this weekend, though I eventually want to make a visit over there to check it out ( I want to check out that deep sea coral reef exhibit I've been hearing so much about XD)

ok, just call me when you get there.

[Tenchi Fan]

I'll be there on Sunday to take pictures. Shooting the Dragonboat races on Treasure Island on Saturday(same weekend) if anyone is going out there.

[JohnnyAR]

I'm winning the soba eating noddle contest.

Over my empty bowls...>_<

I wonder if anyone'll starve themselves before the contest.

Not unless you like passing out or having your stomach eat itself :U

Jun and I are going to have fuuuun~
Mizuki good luck XD and i hope you dont troll the contestants

I'll beat you all, I have a iron stomach.

I'll look forward to beating you guys~! =]

Saturday, right? Because I'll only be able to go on Saturday

[Oniko]

So I came back home this weekend and it's my last chance to bring something back up to school with me in SF.  I dont know if I should bring a costume or not, oh what to do~
Would there even be a place to change?

[Yukari Kaiba]

well theres restrooms inside the shopping mall, but they're not very big, and with the amount of people that might be there it could get crowded pretty quick. I would suggest coming already in costume if you're able to.

I was looking at the Spirit Festival website, and they're having an event called "Fanime - cosplay"?
