ATTENTION EVERYONE GOING TO KATSUCON
This entry is public so that you can link other people to it. I WILL BE UPDATING IT OFTEN, PLEASE CHECK BACK FOR UPDATES.
IMPORTANT EDIT: Parking at the Gaylord is $19 a day and there *ARE* in and out privs. Please be helpful to others who do not have cars.
There is cheaper parking at the National Harbor for $11 a day, but there are NO in and out privs.
Self-parking at the Hampton Inn is $11/day with in and out privs. PARK AT YOUR OWN RISK. People have been able to park without actually staying at this hotel. Make your own call on this one. (Contributed by ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) piratess__)
So a few of us were having a heck of a time finding stuff around the Gaylord.
So here's a helpful guide to getting to and finding CHEAP food around the Gaylord.
Transportation (click on the names for a link to the site)
You can take a cab, but it'll be a bit hefty in price. You can also take the bus, which is incredibly convoluted and complicated.
Personal cabs from other con goers (This is a list of people offering to help people out with their vehicles for a small fee. Please contact them about transportation.) Comment if you want to be added!
saber_rider-If you get on Friday, please contact Ollie to see if he is available. $11 per person.
Shuttle
The hotel provides a shuttle for $13 one-way or $20 round trip to the convention center from Union Station.
Water Taxi
There is a water taxi that goes straight to the Gaylord that is slightly less pain in the ass then the bus. Sorry guys, the water taxi doesn't begin operations until May according to the site
Execucar
For those coming from Reagan National Airport $45 to the convention hotel.
Bus (Contributed by wildhorseranma)
Those who are taking MegaBus/Bolt bus to DC: Green Line to Branch Ave. Take the NH-1 bus to last stop, St. George Blvd. & Waterfront St. (National Harbor).
Amtrak/Greyhound: Red Line to Chinatown, then follow directions above.
Regan National: Yellow Line to Chinatown, then follow directions above.
Food
The Gaylord hotel in a complex with it's own resturants which are really over priced.
A caution about food around the complex The places are farther than the link says. The Gaylord complex is really big so the directions are from all sides of the outside of the complex.
So here is a list of restaurants located around the complex.
Foodings!
If you aren't familiar with google maps, you can move the map around and zoom in to reveal more restaurants in the area.
I'll be living at Taco Bell and Popeyes.
Liquor
Liquor places near the Gaylord
Be smart and be prepared, I'd suggest going to Aldi to get some back up groceries in case we get snowed in.
If anyone has any info they'd like me to add, like which buses to take, that would be great.

The audio is a bit NSFW if someone is listening to it and not watching.
