Originally Posted By MissCandice Ok, the details are not all worked out but here's what we have so far. EdisYoda will be in Seattle on November 19th. That is certain. So why not celebrate this fact by seeing the new Harry Potter movie at the Boeing Imax Theater at the Pacific Science Center in Seattle! Sounds good to me. We will most likely go somewhere to eat afterwards but the location has not been worked out yet. Ed is coming to Seattle but yet he does not like seafood (a travesty). Also we are still working on what show time we are going to try to hit. What works for everybody who would like to come? Here is info about the theater: The show is at the Boeing Imax theatre at the Pacific Science Center in the Seattle Center, here are the directions from the site and the link: From Interstate 5, North- or Southbound · Take exit #167, Mercer Street · At the end of the ramp, turn RIGHT onto Fairview Ave. · Move into the middle lane and follow the road as it curves to the left. · Follow the road until you reach Denny Way. · Turn RIGHT onto Denny Way. · Follow Denny Way for one block and turn RIGHT onto Second Ave. N. Pacific Science Center is on your right. Entrances are located on the north and south sides of the Science Center complex. <a href="http://www.pacsci.org/info.html" target="_blank">http://www.pacsci.org/info.htm l</a> Show times: 10:30a.m., 1:30, 4:30, 7:30 & 10:30p.m. So far Kala has suggested we try for the 10:30 or 1:30 showings, that way we may be able to go to Pike's Place or perhaps ride the monorail and pretend we are in Disneyland. So, to sum up...it will be on the 19th of November but times are still open for discussion. So all Northwest LP'ers-DISCUSS!

I don't want to have a "Puyallup Fair Fiasco" again, so y'all plan it, and I'll see!!!! Miss you guys!!!!

We've just got a lot of heavy stuff going on right now, but I'm hoping I'll feel up to it. I will probably need a nice outing to keep my spirits up.

Iluv maybe we can come over and have dessert with you I hope you will be able to go to the movie though. Seeing Harry Potter on a 70' screen, and you will never be the same! Don't forget the major bonus we get to meet EDISYODA!!!! (Que choir of angels here.) ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Maybe that should be wookies!

Let's hope none of the above happens (except maybe the busy part, since it's been slow on Alki since it's winter now)

Originally Posted By Kala I have some bad news about the IMAX show, the tickets are all sold out for the 18th. Brian tried to purchase them in advance and all show times were sold out. We could see another show at the other IMAX theatre or just hang out at the center, Pike's, Westlake mall, or someting else. Ed is there someplace you want to see or something you want to do in Seattle? It's your day so we're open to suggestions.

Originally Posted By MissCandice Well, I am all for stopping by Pegasus Pizza for food. I liked that place. Are there any theaters near there? We definitly have to agree on on specific spot to meet. Ed, where are you staying? Kala, are you and Brian still planning on picking me up at the ferry? It's no biggie if you can't, just keep in mind I will need detailed directions to where ever we are going. For goodness sake, I got lost the other day going to my sister's house. Argh! Anyhoo, I am more interested in seeing everyone so I am up for anything, I want to do something fun but the main thing is to get to visit.
Originally Posted By EdisYoda I am staying at the Hilton by the airport. Give me an address and I can fire up my GPS receiver and find my way there. So... all I need are a time and an address and I'm there! As for what we do, I'm up for anything too, would love to see THE film, but that isn't mandatory. Someone should probaly show up with movie listings though, just in case.
Originally Posted By ilvdland There isn't a big theater in West Seattle, but there is a discount theater You're best bet is to just go see it downtown, since it's only 10-15 minutes away. I am serving that day, so I won't be able to sit with you, but I can at least wait on you and stuff. Depending on what time you guys get there, I usually stop serving around 3 or so, then I put my manager hat back on....well, it's ALWAYS on, but you know what I mean. Keep me posted, I'll be there at 11am.
Originally Posted By Kala Lunch at Pegasus sounds good to me too! Candice, yes, we planned on picking you up at the ferry that day and Mele if you are planning on coming we can pick you up too! We can meet up Pegasus for lunch say around 11:30 and go from there. Or meet downtown somewhere. We could go to the cinerama (Downtown Seattle) to see Harry Potter. This is my most favorite places to see movies. Very retro and just plain cool! read about it and get directions here: <a href="http://www.cinerama.com/theatre1_save_the_cinerama.html" target="_blank">http://www.cinerama.com/theatr e1_save_the_cinerama.html</a> Ilv can you give EdisYoda directions or the address so his star fighter will be able to find its way out of the Degaba system? I mean SeaTac, same thing.
