If you want to make God laugh, tell him about your plans. - Woody Allen
You just nailed it, Woody.
God must be laughing his ass off after reading the following post, and so am I 😄
To date I had somehow resigned to the fact that @steemfest would take place without me. It still hurt seeing all those warmup posts and telling you @roelandp that I supposedly wouldn't be able to make it - but I kinda managed to deal with it.
Now we all know that life is unpredictable, and if there was anything about it you could forecast then it'd probably be its unpredictability.
Today all circumstances that would've technically impeded my attendance in Krákow just magically disappeared.
Only half an hour later I had booked the whole trip.
Imagine that I'll be even catching a direct flight from Canaries to Krákow - what a gift.
I'm damn ready for takeoff! 💙

Expectations?
It may surprise you but I don't have any.
I'm just excitedly looking forward to meet my internet friends again, have a good time and some beers with you, talk about Steem and the rest of the universe.
Of course, I'm extraordinarily interested to get some first-hand information on all the steemy projects that are currently in the pipeline, but I'm only planning to lean back and enjoy the show.
Last year - presenting by myself - was adrenalin enough, so this year my strategy is a different one.
Funny enough it was yesterday when I had a chat with one of my favorite Steemians about missed chances and regrets.
It's amazing to not miss this one!
See you in Krákow! Woah, being able to write this is sooo cool 😃
Much love,
Marly -

Better late than never I guess! I'm glad you can make it, who else is on our bowling team? :D
Haha, best question ever asked!! Of course, you!!! Now we only need a third group member who seriously knows how to play :-D
Yes we do, they are going to have to do the job of 3 bowlers! :D
lol - after reading this thread nobody would ever apply I guess :-D
Only a hero, can I get a hero?!
will it be a surf team?
Surf bowling anyone?
Oh, have a great time!
Wow, congrads Marly! KILL IT! lol :)
Haha, I'll do my best :-D Thank you @steemitqa!
Yay!!! You made it! (are going to make it) To be honest, I didn't even know there was a chance that you weren't, I kinda just expected you to be there. But great that you are for real! I just paid off my last installment for the Steemfest ticket yesterday, booked the flight last week, apartment booked. So aside from packing some things and getting to the airport, I'm all set too! I'm so excited, if I was anyway visible in your screen, you'd see me jumping up and down for joy. (just not right now, because it's kinda hard to type that way) See you SOON!
Hahahha, I feel the same @misslasvegas! Thanks for your lovely comment and for spreading the pre-steemfest-happiness :-)
See you there!!
Yeahhhh!!!!!
Hehe, now you know why I didn't reply instantly to your question :-)) Had to sort out some things, but now it's official. See you there!
So cool Marly! I'm very happy because of you, I really know how much you wanted to go and destiny is in our side :)
I booked my trip today as well... also came to be possible... Actually I was born in the Canary Islands. All the best!
Qué guay!!! Otra canaria más en el Steemfest. Tenemos que vernos y conocernos :-) Safe travels!!
This makes the SteemBirds very Happy 😊❤️
Hehe, gonna take those dancing shoes with me :-)) See you soon!!!
Well, this announcement is overdue. I was actually starting to think you might not go. What was I so worried about? Haha. Meet you there, @surfermarly.

Well to date I seriously didn't know if I could go, but I'm glad things have changed now!
Meet you there, Dave! :-)
Oh nice one :) you are going to have a blast. Would be great to see what each is up to for the future of Steem.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure we gonna have a great time! Don't expect less :-)
Enjoy! ☀️🎉
Oh yeah oh yeah!
Haha, sweet! Didn't know stage diving was included as well :-)
See you on the dance floor!!
Did you just charter a plane?
Hahahaha, I admit it looks like that :-) But this is just one of the propeller-driven airplanes that takes me and another 60-70 passengers from one island to another. Maybe one day, when we're all Steem millionaires we can charter planes to travel to Steemfest :-)
Yeah,our own private Steem airplane service.
Yeah, forget about lambos when you can have your own airline... Oh and helicopters of course, for the short distance.
Shesh!! Wish I can make it. I already booked for worldcryptocon in Las Vegas... just tell everyone to follow stackin jk 😂...

waiting for you next post.
Great! Looking forward to meet up with you @surfermarly 🙌🏻
Sooo excited that you are able to make it!! We are going to have such a fun time.
I too am going in with no expectations. Just to have fun. I thought about trying to get a speaking slot - etc. etc....but decided i'd rather hang back, soak up all the good vibes and meet a bunch of cool people. <3
Yeah, fully agreed! I had the same feelings: last year I presented on the first day and it kinda dominated the whole thing, so this year I'm happy to just lean back and have a good time as you said :-)
Looking forward to meet you in person!!
See you soon!
Ohhh - it's so amazing you are going to be there despite expectations! Must feel like a huge present :D Will see you soon then!
Yeah, it's a great gift that I can travel to Krákow in the end.
See you soon @soyrosa!!! :-))
YAY!!! I went from thinking I wouldn't be going to winning a trip from @steemitblog (thank you Steemit), so yay for the universe conspiring to get us to Steemfest! Can't wait to meet you. ;)
