Works for me, as long as there's plenty of parking.

sounds good. i totally agree with the plenty of parking bit too!

I think it would be a good idea if some one scoped it out. Sounds like its valey parking like Gladstones. Thats gonna be so sexy to have all our cars valet parked, but also a ***** for the valets.

group discount! who's gonna be the volunteer scout?

I TOTALLY AGREE!!!! Imagine it-- no one flakes! Its a long shot, but if it happened, wow. I think there will be some sweet racing going around too... not too sure if its going to involve me though.

OK, so the place I suggested has Valet Parking? Ok... how much is it?

This is alot harder than it has to be. Hasn't anyone ever heard of those unheard of shack restuarants that are good as , if not better, than most expensive restuarants, but are a whole lot cheaper? And has free parking? Why is this so difficult? Im thinking to cancel the dine part in Malibu, and booking it a Dennis Rodmans place. He owes me a favour or two...

Anyways, find out how much Valet parking is, and let us know. Thanks Fred! And make sure they have enough Valet for all 50+ of us.

Shouldn't dining be the easiest part of this? Also, who was the one they said they found us a place at Fashion Island? Somewhere on top of some building or something? Can you please tell us a little more about that. Whenever you get a chance. Thanks

Best Regards,
John

have fun trying to find a place on PCH in Malibu without valet. all the places ive been to are valet on PCH.

the place is ontop of the parking garage. it is an open lot (close to the little theater and Red Robbin). there is always parking there early in the morning. ill try and get some picks. (plus we get some reverberation action on the way up. ) its a good place

Fred is there another Santa Clarita caravan going down? I am in unless stuff comes up.

Sure if we can get people to show up to this one, and the dirty paki isnt late.

Also vic me and my friends decided you look like our Good Buddy Andy.

You to even dress the same its scary

LOL Fred. Anyways, ( WAIT-- now that you mention it... you're friend does look like Vic! ) are we all good with Redmongooses suggestion? Im okay with it, anyone else?

And thats the way, uh-huh, uh-huh, I like it!

Goody gum drops. Now, Fred see if anyone else has signed up from the SRT-Forums, and update as needed, thanks!

Finally, I would like to say, I believe we are meeting at the place, our friend, Redmongoose mentioned. Mongoose, if you can be as so kind as to get us a map, if possible, and photoshop a circle in it of where we are to meet, and post it here for everyone to see. Thanks.

And...

I just wanted to thank everyone who, so far, spent their free time to make this possible, Fred THANKS A LOT big guy, Redmongoose, ChrisDPham, Tbone55, Sillyent, Element(not sure for what j/k) and everyone else whom I missed, I did not forget you, you're help hasn't gone unnoticed. THANK YOU ALL!!!!

Oh! Citron, you mentioned you're brother wanted to come with his VW. I added him to list as you're guest, let me know if he isn't coming so I can take him down. Thanks.

Also, were eating where!!!!?? This is starting to get annoying... honestly, where are we eating? Fred-- flip a coin heads = Macaroni Grill, Tails = Other place.

Best Regards,
John

ok, here are the picks of the parking lot/ structure. it is hard to give directions because there are like 6 enterences to FI. but, ask someone where the parking structure it and they will tell you. it is by Barns and Noble so you will find it (its not hard)



when you enter the structure, you wanto to follow the signs that say Cinima and Island Dinning. it prity much takes you up to the 4th floor.


so when you get to the top there should be a lot of empty parking.


i took these picks at 11:30 am.

***the second pick is of the structure,so ignore the black-top lot****

its not a hard place to find

Weve only gotten two people to say where they want to eat, you and citreon i believe. Chmon people. I know someones gonna be *****ing day of meet. Mexican...I cant eat mexican i have a sensitivbe bowels.

Once again here are some places in malibu to eat at.

^^I won't be late -- Hey, I'm coming down this Friday... party at my house this coming Friday night!

I still don't know if I can make this, but I was reading the thread and thought you might check out the Paradise Cove Beach Cafe, an "shack" place like you want. Its really casual, like peanuts on the floor, a great view (you're right on the beach) and free parking (3 hrs) validation if you eat in the restaurant. There is a valet on wknds, even for lunch, but its free and if you all come in at once, I dare any valet, or any two valets, to not let whoever wants to park their own car in their little lot right outside the restaurant.

Here is the Paradise Cove Beach Cafe website with menus and everything. Lunch is a bit pricey because its mostly seafood, but breakfast prices are moderate and served everyday until 2 pm.

Its a cool little cove, and where they have filmed Gidget and Rockford files and a bunch of other stuff.

great the chronicles of drunk jesse continue.

hahaha indeed!

i still think we should eat at macarroni grill.

I don't care where we eat, lol, just as long as we EAT.

RedMongoosE, I saw the pictures you took of the parking structure.

Looks good, someone should get a hold of cones and block off 1 and half levels of parking. The visitors that aren't from the meet won't know whats going on. Have someone where to remove the cones when people tell them they are there for the cruise. We won't get in trouble.

Also considering that the meet is already at 50 something. I expect at least 100 when the time comes.

i live less than 2 min. away so i will be able to get there early, maby if 10 people or so show up at 10, we can act as rent-a-cops. i dont own cones and i think they are expensive. i might be able to contact FI and ask them if there security guards can block off a section for the meet. all of the stores open at about 11 and the only stores that you park on the roof for are the movie theater and RedRobbin. so i dont think it will be crowded.

True. Just steal cones. lol there should be some laying around here and there.

True, contant FI. I don't think they will mind, since you said the stores don't open up until 11. The meet starts at 10 I believe? I'm too lazy to check again but yeah.

Who goes to Red Robbin anyways, lol. No one is going to go the movies that early either.

Plan for 100 expect 90 or so actual people, id say 60 cars maybe 70. We need to get a place to eat down and a time to eat at.

Uh, are you guys eating in Newport or Malibu? What time?

I just set up a poll. I really like the place you suggested. Its very scenic and looks remote, and the parking lot looked huge.
