Codgers

[msmemory_archive]

Color me Old Codger. I'm having sticker shock today over the prices of Twelft [sic] Night and Birka. Yes, I know that each is charging just a smidge more than a first-run movie ticket, and I couldn't eat anywhere nicer than Friendly's for a sum like that feast fee, but I am unused to these numbers - or to the notion that advance registration doesn't give a discount.

(If anyone knows for sure that the 12th Night feast is sold out, let me know so I won't bother sending an onboard reservation.)

I believe there's an additional cost at the door... don't remember what it was though, as we sent in our reservations. Which hopefully got there in time (we're singing at the feast, so we figured we might as well pay for it).

Site fee is US$10, Dayboard is US$3, and Feast is US$15.

$28 total? Well, considering I'm paying over $40 for a 4-1/2 hour event with one meal (feast) next month, it seems cheap. I know, I know. It's what you're used to. Things were cheaper when I lived in the Outlands, but sites are very expensive in Drachenwald. North Americans do tend to experience sticker shock over here at first. :)
