I won a trip through work to Switzerland (which is where my company headquarters is) and Lake Como. Although it isn't purely fun that week, conferences and strategy meetings, they know how to entertain in off hours. We are taking some customers from the states so will have some fun packed in there.
Then I will spend another week - heck, why not since they paid for my flight- in Venice, Modena and then back to Milan.
Can't wait. Except, I am traveling for work everyday next week. I get home at 5pm on Friday and then back to DFW at 6 am on Saturday for the trip. So lots of packing and last minute things this weekend.

I'm still in.
The last time we had one in Dallas, other than my 2 friends that I dragged along, only one other person showed up. She was delightful and we had fun visiting but it was disappointing that many said they would attend and didn't.
With the price of gas, I don't want to make the trip and have no one show.
So how about it . . . who will come besides me?
I hope lots!

Guys, if you don't know each other, maybe print large word "Fodor's" and paste it to the back of the chair facing the entrance door, or put a Fodor's guidebook (front page if you don't want to carry the whole book) on the edge of the table - whoever comes in first.
It's been my experience, you can't always recognize people from the photos of prior GTGs.

I am a feisty, round lady with a little dutch boy haircut (don't ask).
I'll be in beige Cargo pants, a green Life is Good Tee and Keen sandals.
They will not seat us until everyone is there... they may if most of us are there...
The restaurant is HUGE.
For stragglers, just go to the hostess and ask where we are, they will know.
Just as an FYI, Bath and Body works is having their big sale, Victorias Secret, Papyrus, William Sonoma, Pottery Barn, too!
Big sales, up to 75% off!
