I got my early-bird tickets and booked a room at the Marriott for the
weekend. (Go Marriott rewards).

My wife is still undecided whether or not she'll be coming along.  If not,
I'll be happy to open up my sofa, floor, far corner of the bed to anybody
who needs a place to crash.  It's not a sure-thing at this point, but feel
free to check with me first if you're considering sleeping on the front
steps of the Smithsonian.

I didn't make it in this round.
It is a ~750$ flight from Germany over to D.C. and it would be self
founded for me. Now I have time to rethink it until Dec. 1st.
Hey Robin, what hotel are you referring to? The cheapest I found is the
Best Western five miles away.

A couple of people have asked me what hotel it is, it is a B+B not a
hotel and I'll release the name once I've got my place fully booked.
I've mailed them with all the details but not had confirmation back.
Once I get my room I'll open it to the world, selfish I know but hey!

I was really hoping to make it this year (haven't made one yet),
however there's no money in the budget for me to travel this year. If
I'm going to self-fund this one anyone have good ESP doing this on
the
cheap? I know it's DC...

I'm paying for myself to come over from the UK.

B&B is cheaper than the hotel, eh? Good to know. I'm footing my own
bill too and looked at some hostel options in the area. There are some
really cheap places to stay if you don't mind the dormitory style
arrangements. In the end, I opted for a shorter trip, arriving in the
afternoon on Friday and leaving in the afternoon on Sunday. Next year,
I'll extend it by a day and maybe convince my work to split the costs.

I'm staying in a $89/night place I stayed at last year. Nice place,
very good breakfast and only 10 mins walk from the hotel.

I did the short trip option to Toorcon, flew in on Thursday afternoon
and left Monday morning. It was a long way for such a short time but
saved cash and I did the site seeing I wanted to. I'll maybe extend it
a day next year and go to Mexico for a day trip.
