I’ve already booked my accommodation at the Days Inn, where they have a discount for the event. I plan to go down by train! Those who are willing to live by the train schedule are welcome to join me…as I would enjoy the company. Although, I understand that piling into a car is more economical and gives you more flexibility. It would be great to have a nice group from Seattle represent and have an amazing time down in Corvallis.
Cheers, Sam

What are the details of getting there by train ?
I have to still look at the train details again. I haven’t done that yet. It’s the Amtrack schedules. It takes you to Albany, and then a short bus ride to Corvallis. But, the bus schedule didn’t match up with the train schedule…so i have to figure that out. You’d think that they would match a bus with each train arrival…but it doesn’t appear anyone used that common sense…I’ll post again once I find out.
it’s about $40 one way. so $80 bucks for the train. 5 hours + 30 plus minutes by bus.
I’m going and taking a car. So far, I have Lorena, Nadja, and Barbara. There’s room for one more in my car. As for the Hotel. I have one reserved and it’s filled up now with Lorena, Nadja, Barb and me.
awwww. come with us. a car load of gals!! silly boy.

Thanks to all the good dancers I danced with today by the park.
Thanks for your patience and help. I am a tango dancer and I have danced Salsa but was new to Rueda. Looking forward to dancing with you all soon, Yasmina. (Newly moved to Seattle)
It was great dancing with you too, Yasmina! You were great! Please come back to join us again.
hey.. I want to go. does anyone want to share a roomn a the days? Maritza, do you still have room in your car?
yeah, there is room for one more, you’ll be the one. I believe Kimberly Boreman is going to reserve a room. I will contact her for you so she knows you are interested in rooming with her. I’ll let you know. –Maritza
