            (cross-posted to LJ for anyone who's wondering)
Late (as always) I give you the FURNAL EQUINOX 2010 CON REPORT!!!! *cheers*
I don't really want to do an itemized list of happenings so let me just ramble some things... (For a complete synopsis of the weekend check out the con report on
 artamis's journal.)
I went to FE with
 
 and 
 we were supposed to have Ayres and her fiancée with us as well but due to last minute money troubles they were unable to make it. Since we live just outside Toronto we decided to drive in each morning with TomTom to navigate. We were undecided as to whether we'd attend both days but in the end we did, which was awesome! 
Over the course of the weekend we met up with some previous friends
 sethtriggs and 
 aeliawyndsong as well as 
 hypr. I also got to meet one of my good msn friends 
 xzion which was super fun!!  We also met a bunch of new furs including  
 missmab 
 matthiasrat 
 mmm-dumpling 
 tigersammy 
 kutekittykatt 
 wggthegnoll 
 cheeto Also a very sweet kitty named Flow who's not on FA. Oh and the very talented photographer 
 shujintribble and his daughter Tiny Tribble. 
We also met 2 very cool boys who run a podcast!!!
 trenton and 
 dkdragon can be found here at 
 thefluffhouse be sure and check them out! (Also their youtube channel as there's some footage of Potato & I) 
The Things I liked:
I really enjoyed the later night panel on adult drawing with
 bushycat she is just too funny! I loved that there was a rodents panel hosted by 
 MatthiasRat even though not too many rodents showed up this year. :-P The dance was pretty awesome! The fursuit games were really fun! The parade was also a lot of fun. I was Potato's handler and it was neat to be able to walk in the parade! The con staff was also super nice and amazing!! Shout-outs to:  Pakesh De and Blindsight and Artctic for an awesome con!!!
The Things That could be improved on:
It was too bad that there were so few panels and they were staggered (half hour/hour) so if you went to one you couldn't make another but I'm sure they'll work that out. Also the walls were really thin so sound checks sometimes interfered with panels. The zoo wasn't well advertised as there were tables in the main area a lot of people just hung at, but again I'm sure it'll be better next year.
Summary:
In conclusion it was awesome for a first-time con, a ton of fun and a really good experience! The smaller atmosphere was so different from big cons like AC, you could actually get to know people and hang out with them more than once! LOL I'd definitely suggest anyone who can make it should plan to go next year!
You can check out my pics here: (sorry the quality is kind of crap, I dunno what happened)
