This year looks like a great location but also a logistical nightmare, I've been warned I can't just pull up with my car to the hotel and unload boxes and posters... you need a boat to get there... Venice... Duh...
I think I'll just drop ship the usual load with UPS this time and let them figure out how to get things to the correct address (they seem to have a brown delivery boat)
