But My Girlfriend and I are going to be at this event first! and then after the frenzy at the BABY store, then its off to get ice cream!
Woot for adventures! :D
Shameless bump*
Sorry! I'm surprised, no one else is interested in going? :P C'mon its japan town! its a random excuse to dress up and have fun. :D
I know there will be a Lolita meet up because of the Baby Store event, but also a good excuse to get random arts/crafts and good foods from the Japanese culture.
Also the kids carnival zone to test your random game skills and see if you win random fluffy prizes.
Anyone else going? :P or is everyone still broke? no transportation available?
I would offer rides, but my car is already full. I'm going Saturday.
Hope to some more fanime forum friends there! :)
Darn, I would so want to go to this, but dang it, family plans and birthday parties. D;
Looking from Chinatown in Oakland, its just right across. T___T
I've always wanted to go to these, but oddly enough, there's always something that interferes. D;
I might show up since I don't really have anything else to do this weekend (other than getting a haircut)
I really want to make it, but work gets in the way!
Would love to go, but I doubt I can get there. Have fun though! Pictures!
Aw, this looks like fun! Too bad the Pistahan Festival's going on at the same time over in yerba buena.
So, anyone make it? I came late on Sunday, smelling all the fresh seafood but there wasn't any left :(
*is very sad*
I did go briefly during saturday morning for the Baby event sale of their "lucky packs" sadly tho i didnt bring my camera though...
of course im sure there are random pictures of me on random ppls phones, like fanime- i had lots of random UP fans take random pictures of me.
i was there only for a short while from about noon-ish til slightly pass 2pm- then we rushed over to Fentons for lunch and ice cream...
there are more Fenton pictures from the lolita meetup which ill post in that thread if i ever get around to it. :P
Thanks to one of the girls here's one of the flickr slide show of some of the photos from the Baby Store Event.
Also has Fenton's Ice cream photo shoots as well.
Enjoy!
