Anniversary date is 2012. 02.24 we can swift it to better weather for example in next year May. Usually discount air lines flight ticket is pretty cheap if we can reserve it before months. I will try to look also inexpensive accommodation so let me know how many of you interest and we can start to think and arrange meeting.

If in February, perhaps weather in Italy would be more suitable?

I would love to attend, count me in!

Perhaps good idea to arrange meetings by continents one in USA, one in Asia, one in Europe etc due we are living huge distance from each others.

Thank God it is in 2012.
After the trip to Orio this year, I could not sell another MFL trip in 2011 to my wife. Laughing Wink

2012, perhaps.

But not in February, I am afraid. As a teacher I only can travel during the term holidays. Sad

In Sicily maybe. Not where I live. Wink
Where I live February is cold, only possible advantage in February there is the Carnival as a photo opportunity.

I also advice for a meeting in May or June, as the daylight will be longer.

I would love to come and will make plans when there is a date. June would be wise I believe. The days longer and the dress code easier for travel.
Packing winter clothes is never fun Wink

I have just checked (just for fun). A return flight in summer from Frankfurt to Budapest can be booked for about €100,- if you you book really early - which means about now, one year in advance. The longer you wait, the more expensive it gets.

So, if we mean this seriously, we should try to agree on a date as quickly as possible.

Agree , need to find date quick as possible. So take some suggestion about date and place Budapest or Italy both are fine to me. If we have date and place and how many people we have approx we can look accommodation too. It would be nice if we able to stay together in same hotel.

How about 2012.06.09 Saturday 13,00 Budapest ? I am open for other date, place let me know your suggestion.

Sounds ideal to me as it is 5 days after my birthday!

Hmmm... no summer term holidays then, just a weekend.
I cannot take a Friday off, so I would need to travel on Saturday, early in the morning.

Just checked. There are no flights from Frankfurt to Budapest on Saturday and back on Sunday. Sad
