What happens in Vegas…

Will be posted on the blog.  :)   At least, anything that might be interesting. 

So far, I got here with a major headache.  Probably should have had some coffee before I left and maybe eaten a little something.  I did finally eat lunch at 4:30 Birmingham time, which was only 2:30 here.  Then I went and registered for the conference, took the “goodie bag” back up to my room, and went and bought a camera.   I bought a Canon A590.  It is nice and small, and I have a Canon at home that I like.  It wasn’t a bad price either.

I am staying at the Venetian, which is a very nice Hotel and Casino.  One of the nicest in Vegas as a matter of fact.  It should be noted though, that when the lady at the check-in desk says “it is in the more secluded area of the hotel” that is code for “it is a REALLY long walk to get anywhere”.  I think that would be the case anyway, but still..

The first year I was here I had a view of the Treasure Bay casino, and they have a pirate show they do a couple of times a day.  that was  a really nice view.  My view this time:

I did make it to the Expo this evening.  Basically, it is where you walk around and let salesmen (and women) try to sell you software products.  It was a little crowded:

I didn’t really talk to anyone yet.  Hard to hear with that many people all talking at once…

    So he knows where NOT to go, right? ;) Meanwhile, I slave away at home sewing “murses” (man purses) for Thomas’ party. But at least I get to nap!
