I'll see what I can find out about a quiet restaurant in the area. I'm originally from there and have friends and family there - surely they will know something! Thursday night - would be great fun to begin the weekend getting to meet you all! I'll get back with info soon. :)

I posted on the other link that my husband and I are attending the symposium.  I can't wait to meet all my new AN friends!  :D We will be starting out in Ada, Ohio to see my son on his 30th birthday June 16 and traveling that day to Cincinnati.  (I hope I'm typing correctly, as my right eye is watering terribly from my recent parotid gland surgery.  Staring at the computer screen is driving it crazy!)  Hoping to see you all soon.  And Kay, I wish you could be there.  I'm thinking about you.  Sandy

I'm looking forward to my first symposium.  I'm flying in on Thurs. & attending the local group leaders/facilitators mtg. Friday Morning.
I'm considering taking the TANK 2X express bus from CVG to Cincinnati.  It looks like a reasonable walk from the bus, $1.75 fare-- ...
Also considering going to the Sunday afternoon Reds v. Bluejays game...

There is some back from the FB symposium question.      Mei Mei is for sure,          Mary from AZ is not and said she rarely uses her cane anymore.       There are the posts before this with those coming.        No word from tim but am pretty sure they are.

Oh man, Tim is attending too.  Another person I'm going to miss.  I miss him here on the Forum.  Very unique guy with a great perspective on things; very nice wife, also.

Phyl, your job is to make sure all those from the Forum who are attending this year attend again in 2013.  I am 100% commited to attending in 2013 and don't want to miss a soul.

Hi!   I'm just seeing this for the first time.   I've been in Istanbul and then went in to surgery two days later with Dr. Ducic.  

I will be there but didn't know that we should arrive Thursday night.   I booked the room and tickets back in January.   Am staying at the  Hiltion and cell phone can be shared via PM/email.

My flight arrives from Baltimore around 1 pm.   Will find out how to get to the hotel one of these days.   Maybe the Hilton has a shuttle.

Hugs to all....can't wait to meet you.  This weekend I know is going to fly by.
Mei Mei

(Hi MeiMei... thrilled you are definately coming. No one HAS to arrive Thurs... some are, some aren't so either which way, will be fantastic to FINALLY meet you.  BTW, no sharing of personal contact info in posts/threads.... but you are more than welcome to share in PM/emails. Thanks for understanding. See you in Cinci! Phyl)
