        Yeah, it got totally commercialized after that...

          Probably wont make it.

          I'm sad because I may be in Seattle that week, or if I am it might be to close to my other time off 😞 Still figuring it out.

          What are you doing in Seattle more important than MangoCon?

          CoffeeCon? HipsterCon?

            @Ambarishrh For this small trip, train is the way that I would go, and then rent a car or Uber at your destination (Rochester). If you were doing a real road trip, or want to really get on the road, you can join me next year in August, 2018 (the whole month). I'm going to do about 8-9k miles or so.

              I just recommended the train to someone else yesterday, too.

                The bus from NYC to Rochester isn't glamorous but works very well.

                  I guess Greyhound has improved a lot over the years. I hear that they have power and WiFi now.

                          I'm trying to estimate how much it would be for me to attend. I called the Holiday Inn and they said the block is around $119 / night + taxes. It's been over 10 years since I've traveled to New York. What percentage should I estimate the hotel tax to be for Rochester?

                            It's around 10% for the Rochester area.

                                a Month out should be fine

                                    They are available right now but their site still doesn't work. The code this year is GMC you can book online and do it manually or give them a call! http://mangocon.it/booknow/

                                      Earlier the better, but you don't need loads of lead time. Amtrak has a nice app for your phone, too.

                                          Don't ask questions. She is okay with that. Now she can change her mind! 😛
