Falcon Watch Weekend - 2013 - July 13th and 14th

[glothom]

If you check Ei's Landmark Map link at the bottom of this page you can see some of the parking lots and garages DT. I'm not sure what they cost maybe someone else knows their rates.

Has anyone heard from Lynda & Tim? Marcia? Ginha? Feel like I'm forgetting someone...

Susan! That's one I'm forgetting!

Kapi? Does she come to these anymore?

Kapi has been following along but currently has a new fur baby so I suspect she won't be able to this year. I'll ask her.

And about Jim P ?? Haven't heard from him for a long time ?

[glothom]

Are there places to sit at the park or should we bring folding chairs? Other then cameras, binoc and possibly chairs, what else should we bring?

[patsy6]

There are places to sit at the park, but not a lot of them, so they'll fill up fast.  It's not a bad idea to bring a folding chair for that and for fledge watching in the area.

I have another question.....are there bathroom facilities at the park?   

I know there are restaurants near by but usually they require you to buy something to use them. And some of the other buildings may be closed on Saturdays or not have public bathrooms.

[Bonnie]

FYI all. I am not bringing the motor home ths year. I think people use the facilities in the restaurants that are close.

You will be sweating a lot of the moisture away, though.

There are no public restrooms at Aqueduct Park (it's a very tiny park). I believe most of the restaurants are closed, but Subways may be open, and if you want to take a short walk across the Main Street Bridge, the convention center is usually open.  And there are public facilities in the hotels, and maybe the Blue Cross Arena as well, if something is going on there.  The weekend watchers can tell you more.

When we were there yesterday we found out that in order to use Tim Horton's you have to buy something to get a code number that will open the bathroom door.
