I think this will help a few decide exactly WHERE to go and things....

Nancy

We are staying at the Hyatt but it will be a quick trip for us. We fly in NYE morning get in around 12:00 and leave the next morning at 10:30 because Susie has to work New Years Day. I really wish I could stick around longer for the BOJ show at HOB.

BOJ @ HOB? Ok, I must go to this, love BOJ and have never seen them!

I do not know where I am staying.

BOJ is at HOB on the 2nd.

We're at the Hyatt, too. Still iffy on how long we'll be there. Hoping to catch the BOJ show.

Room 2629.......hahahahahahaha!!!!!

Well, my flight is booked (12/30 - 1/2) and as far as I know I'm staying at the Hyatt. Still working on that. Waiting to hear back from a couple people to decide who's rooming with who.

I would love to stay for BOJ, never seen them, but I already have plans set up for the weekend.

I am staying at the Sofitel Chicago O'Hare, in Rosemont, on River Rd and it is a 3 minute walk to the Hyatt. 0.17 mile away

We will be staying at the Holiday in at 5615 N Cumberland Ave in Chitown. Its the only hotel that we could use our reward points for a free room. We will have to take a cab, but hey...its a free room. Now to find directions to Giordano's....sounds yummo!!

Mapquest says 2.46 miles and 4 minutes. We are driving from Ohio so we'll have the car....I wonder if there is parking available for nonguest at the Hyatt?

who is having a post party in their room? I will bring the jack

Micki, last year we didn't stay at the Hyatt, but we were able to park there. I think it was about $20 though.

me, me, me ! ! !
seeing as i know my roomies fairly well, i'd be very surprised if we didn't.


and i'm making sure there's Coke to have with that jack. no pepsi, ick!

Ok, well....I fly in at 2:30pm on the 31st and will be at my hotel room around 3pm. I need someone to pick me up some liquor!! I will pay you!! even payPAL you! I need JD, Tequilla, 1/2 rack of Corona and a bottle of cheap champagne.....

I drink JD straight from the bottle. We will play "Double Bubble"....I know Dino knows what I am talking about as would anyone who read Nikki's last book...

PARTY CENTRAL.................now wouldn't that be funny if you got the same room# again this year

He's got the Jack!!!
He's got the Jack!!!
He's got the Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack!!!!!
He's got the Jack!!!!

Yeah, it could happen.
Sharon and I are getting in early enough that we might be able to swing it! And maybe get adjoining rooms with Rachel and Jeff again too!!!

Looks like a shopping trip to Nick's is in store for beverages too.

I'm kinda hoping we do have the same room set up again. I liked that.

we will work on it!!!

Thanks for the parking info! I think we are planning on taking a cab so we don't have to worry about driving. I have another question for you since you didn't stay there last year. Do they have a coat check? If not guess I will have to decide between freezing on the way there and back or dragging my coat around with me all nite. Thanks!!

They did have a coat check.
