Actually, it's Wednesday through Sunday this time (Sept 28th-Oct 2nd) which I guess is technically 5 days. But in 2008, on Sunday, we pretty much got up, packed and left by lunch time or so. I think breakfast is the only meal included that day, if I remember right. And apart from a showing of the trilogy, there weren't any events. You can do a la carte days as well, if for some reason you can't make it for the whole thing.
But once you register, I would book your room quickly thereafter. There's not a ton of space at the Village itself and I think there's going to be a bigger response this time. They're making info available for off-site lodging, which is not something they did last time.
I'm putting my all into making it to D*C this year because with ALEP 2 next year, I'm not sure I could pull off the two events in basically the span of one month. My reasons are financial mostly, but also and in terms of child care. I want to keep Chris from having to take time off to stay home with Jonah and not overburden my in-laws with keeping him too much as well.
Bug away! I'm happy to answer them. It's one of the few events I have experience with. D*C=deer in headlights. ALEP=all good. ;) I'll check and see if I can share the link tomorrow. Then you can get on the forums and bug others about it. :P
