Mittens Benidorm 2006 - WED 16 AUG to WED 23 AUG

Pet Terry · Fri 03/03/2006 20:59:00

Holy crap.

Roller coasters and water slides, this might easily become my best vacation ever. We're definately going to those places, no doubt about it. Yes, I'm definately coming.

Oh, and happy birthday, Nacho.

Being a fan of both thrills and wildlife/nature, I am interested in the top two park options, Terra Mitica and Terra Natura. I'm not quite sure the group would want to sqeeze 4 park visits into a week though, that would likely disrupt conversation times and cut into valuable 1kbwc time... I think 2 would be good, not including that attached waterpark. Then again I am merely one of ~20, I will go along with concensus no matter what

Pumaman · Sat 04/03/2006 11:03:51

Looks great Farlander, I'll most certainly be coming along!

And happy birthday indeed

Becky · Sat 04/03/2006 12:52:23

Adam and I are very interested in themepark/waterpark excitement. We shall definitely be coming!

Helm · Sat 04/03/2006 16:42:16

happy birthday, son.

I'll be coming, of course.

Chrille · Sat 04/03/2006 16:52:24

I'll be there as well if I can get time off.

Nacho · Sat 04/03/2006 18:58:24

EDIT: it seems you missed quite a few other people who have said they might be coming, like Layabout, Creed Malay, Spleen, mattgoble, Sinitrena, chicky, Radiant...

Matt Goble · Sat 04/03/2006 23:02:34

Yep, definitely coming - just waiting for the british contingent to decide what we're doing about flights, although knowing me, I've probably missed a memo, and everyone is already booked :

Disco · Sun 05/03/2006 15:06:18

Heya Nacho,

You can put Gary and I down for definite, we have already made some reservations. Now if nothing crazy happens to me in the next 10 or so days before I buy my plane ticket, and if Gary isn't abducted by aliens, we ought to be there on the given dates

.

Sinitrena · Tue 07/03/2006 03:23:30

I'll defenitly come as well. I haven't booked yet, but I will soon.
I feel a bit nervous about meeting a lot of people I don't really know, but hey, it's an adventure.

Nacho · Tue 07/03/2006 14:13:50

Sinitrena, asap as you book you'll enter in definitives.

Girl, it's impossible to feel bad at mittens, for one reason. You really got to be really bastard for having bad stories with this pure-hearted guys... And really bastard people does not travel 1000 milles for meeting internet mates!Ã,Â

So, don't be nervous.

Again, as I did last year, and even recognising that there won't be a problem, I make a call for all the female AGSers, or male AGSers' couples, to come here and give this mate a little of femenine company.

Not bad expectations this year, though... Lorena and Becky are sure, and I really hope to have Dominika and Sara as well... If Dart, Pesty and Ivy come too, I'll be really happy!

Don't hesitate to PM me asking info, or giving it. The real name, if wanted to be called that way, would be cool...

Pet Terry · Tue 07/03/2006 14:57:29

Before everyone books we should decide if we're going to wait for everyone to arrive (not counting those who come later) before heading off to Benidorm. Last year most of the people arrived in Athens a day early but then again that wasn't such a problem because it was weekend. Now doing that would require one more day off of work for some people. Personally, I wouldn't mind staying in the airport overnight and I think waiting for everyone to arrive would be nice, but what do you think?

Chrille · Tue 07/03/2006 15:33:59

Ok I've looked at some flights and the best plan seems to be this:

Wednesday, August 16:
------------------------------
Gothenburg (15.45) - Stockholm (16.40)
Stockholm (20.25) - Alicante (0.15)

Wednesday, August 23:
------------------------------
Alicante (15.40) - Stockholm (19.30)
Stockholm (21:05) - Gothenburg (22:00)

The total cost for this would be roughly 2600:-
If I fly one day earlier, I'd arrive at the same time but I'd have to pay 1200:- and I don't mind missing one day that much.

If Andail or any other Swedes are planning on attending I guess they would be interested in this as well.

Edit: Farlander, could you please have a look if there are any buses or trains leaving from Alicante to Benidorm after 0.00 ?

AGA · Tue 07/03/2006 15:50:50

Andail lives in the UK now, remember.

Chrille · Tue 07/03/2006 15:53:03

Yes, but I thought he was only living there for a few months as part of school?

Nacho · Tue 07/03/2006 18:39:47

Never thought on the possibility of such a late arrival... I am going to the buss station to pick a leaflet. Thanks for this demmanding of info, I promise everything will be clear months before the arrival.

Goldmund · Tue 07/03/2006 18:58:34

QuoteI really hope to have Dominika and Sara as well...

Hey, I thought you were after me, not my wife, bastard!!

We're not booking, because there's a small dream of going to Benidorm by car, seeing some Europa on our way... we're not sure if Evil Bosses will allow us so much time in summer (we'd need around 2 weeks including Mittens, I reckon). If not, we'll fly by plane and anally rummage Farlander.

Helm · Tue 07/03/2006 19:09:13

Excellent!

m0ds · Tue 07/03/2006 21:30:53

I'm a definite, I couldn't get any cheaper deals than those found. So once I know which flight everyone's getting I'll book it. An indication of some of the other costs we might face would be cool too, just so I know how much to save up for

I would bring my meggie too, but she's not an AGSer! Anyway Benidormatory will be great I'm sure, I'm looking forward to it! And water parks! And roller coasters! If it's Terra Mitica then I can geek out and enjoy riding to my death on Magnus Collosus...! Will it beat whatever one we went on in Sweden!??! Who knows!
