Are you going to the Water for Elephants Premiere in NYC? Well Gretchen has set up a great Remember Me tour for Saturday the 16th if you’re in town. We’ll most likely be with them as well as Patti from An Unofficial Remember Me Site. It’s a great chance to visit some of the filming locations from the movie. You must RSVP here for the tour. We had made a post about some of these locations which you can check out here. Well update you as soon as we get more info!
This is a casual walking tour of the Remember Me fans. Gretchen/Twilidiot will be moving straight through the schedule. You may want to spend more time at many of the sites, or see great shopping along the way, but please plan to come back at a later time if you want to stay with the group.
You can meet us at either the Pearl Street Diner at 9:00 a.m. or in the main lobby of the New York Hilton at 8:00 a.m. (1335 Avenue of the Americas). The Hilton is near the Ziegfeld Theater and where many of theWater for Elephants premiere fans will be staying.
