I have only been there once, this is the part of the thread where I reveal I am, in some people's opinions, "woefully un-travelled." And when I went it was to Disney at that!

My parents are renting a house on Sanibel Island, where they have vacationed for a couple of years, and they have invited my siblings and me. I only have to foot the bill for airfare (and spending money while I'm there, &etc). I agreed to this and then my mother asked me to please confirm because she didn't want my brother to back out. Her worry is fairly founded so I've doubly agreed and unfortunately Hubski doesn't mean quite enough to me that I'd be willing to bail. I did think that if the meetup occurred during one of the two weekends away maybe I could arrange to leave for FL late or return early, so I'm not entirely without options if it isn't fortuitously scheduled. However if I can have any input on the dates (and I believe we're also waiting on thenewgreen 's ladywife to pop out a brand-spanking-new human specimen before we set any dates so that's a factor of course) I'd prefer if that set could be avoided.

I am hoping the weather is nice. I hate winter. I don't know how I'll be about meeting/talking to people there. Frankly I'm a little worried I might get bored. I might be on Hubski a lot. I'll bring books.
