One day til Australia!

Tomorrow I leave for Australia (I'm speaking at Tech Ed Australia), and I'm starting to get pretty excited!  I've never been to that part of the world, plus I'm really looking forward to meeting lots of interesting people.

This is my first time speaking at a conference, so please think good thoughts for me.  My talk is on Tuesday afternoon (Advanced Datagrids).

Best of luck Marcie. You'll love it down-under. My parents and sister live near Brisbane which is heaven-on-earth! Just don't expect people to be hyper like Americans; they are SO laid back!

I asked one shopkeeper what time they opened in the morning and was told that it depended on how the surf was. "Probably by ten" was the best I could get..

Now don't miss us out. We are looking forward to your talks in NZ as well.

I'm sure both the Aussies and Kiwis will enjoy your sessions.

Heya Marcie,

I was really looking forward to your talk, but I've been told that I have to attend another session in the same time-slot :(

I've booked in a one-on-one for lunch the following day, hopefully you can make it!

Cheers,

Tim.

The whether in Brisbane has been great lately. Unfortunatley I can't attend Tech-Ed year (because I have a project that is nearly due) but I will be attending the "preview" on Sunday. I resent the generalization that people in Brisbane are all laid back. It's 11:00 AM and I've had 2 cans of Red Bull already, with 2 more in the fridge for "later" (which is twice the reccomended daily limit). The way I figure it, they don't count if you finish them before you get back to your desk :) .
