The Bell Family

After waking up early, I ended up watching a movie on the TV here. I had some breakfast and with a couple of my colleagues, we headed out to the downtown bay area to do some more site-seeing and browsing through the shops.

First stop was to head to the Moscone centre to register for the conference. This saved us from having to do it on the Monday, which saved us a lot of time.

We grabbed something to eat for lunch and headed back to our rooms for a break. Over the past few days, I would have walked more than in the previous month and my feet were telling me so. After giving my feet some rest, I headed out with a mate towards the water again to take some photo’s and check out the place in the daytime.

Above is a picture of me with the Bay Bridge in the background.

Also, here is another picture with cupid’s bow and arrow in the back ground. I think because San Francisco is the city of love, or something like that, it is reason for its significance.

Again, it was quite a walk back to our rooms and by the time we got back it was time to attend the AUC pre-wwdc gathering in which people from Australia and New Zealand was in attendance. With nibbles and free drinks provided, it was good to meet similar people attending the conference and network with them. I also caught up with an old work colleague who has moved on. It’s a small world isn’t it?

After a few drinks, the gathering was finishing up and some of us headed to the motel’s bar for some more food and drinks. I ended up meeting a number of new people and a good night was had.
