More from Katsucon
Aside from attending a lot of panels I also got some really good cosplay shots at the con.

Kagura
A classic Kagura from Fruits Basket, complete with plush backpack.

Emma
My pick for all time best cosplay. Emma fits right in with the decor, doesn't she?

close, Ichigo
He's got the attitude down, now to turn down the volume on the hair!

Princess Mononoke
Miyazaki fans, this one's for you!

Kenshin
He doesn't have the bangs, but other than that, good job!

Me in sorta samurai gear.
I was supposed to be a soul reaper but the black kimono didn't turn out. Oh well, I think I look kinda cool like this.

Mr. Hat-and-clogs-whose-name-I-can-never-remember!
The hat, the clogs, even the cane! Cool!

Took a walk around DC
Outside the hotel I found some fascinating architectural examples. If only the best ones had turned out.

Not a park
Note, that hedge across the street does not lead to a park. It's actually someone's home. Wow, the people here must be loaded!

big hotel
The hotel is even more impressive in the day time.

big yard for hotel
The hotel even comes with a park.

nature area
And it's own wildlife sanctuary.

However, it doesn't come with a number of things I've become accustomed to receiving from much **much** cheaper places. Free continental breakfast, free wireless access, more than just a few basic cable channels, all for well under a hundred bucks a night and in a room that's about the same size as the one we were crammed into.

I really don't *care* if the inaugural ball has been held here since Roosevelt! I am **not** spending 4-digits on a room that doesn't even have internet access!

More to come next time.

Thanks ^_^

Some day I am going to coss-play and I know exactly who I want to go as! Yucie from the anime Petite Princess Yucie. Of cores I will be dressed as an adult version of Yucie, the poor 17 year old who stopped aging when she turned 10. ;-;

I like all the people who are not in costume just wandering around as if there is nothing out of the ordinary going on :D
