I would have loved to but schedule won’t allow it unfortunately. Hoping you two have a great time though and you win $5,000 to get that GI.
I always look forward to new releases.

Looking forward to the updates
In for the info. Look forward to seeing some pics!

Edit: wasn’t aware of the no picture rule.
Just be careful with taking photos there it is a big no no. There are always people who know more than the others and do not respect the rules. There are idiots everywhere. In the past have seen someone get escorted away who was taking pictures. Do not know what happened in the end I was just walking down the aisle and saw the person "discussing it" with an official from the Show. This is like being in a casino---the eye above is always watching!
