Get together before base camp
-
I just got to the hotel.
Andrew, I don't know if you'll see this before you get to the room but I left a key card with your name on it at the front desk. Good luck with the flight and so on.
-
Late notice, but I'm dropping by in a few minutes. See you there.

-
I believe that I can't be there at the good hour!

My boat is not enough speedy on the ocean from the old continent!
Have fun and wishing videos will be neat

-
Right
None of this "What goes on tour stays on tour" shite! Get the photos up from last night / this morning!!
-
Chris took pictures and if I recall correct he said 'not gonna happen in the first couple of months'

Nice to see the face behind each name! (Although i don't remember them anymore due to being up 24 hours and the beers)
Registration and Brunch starts in 5 minutes! -
Here is a pic of some Googlers and SketchUcationers outside The Dairy (meeting place) this morning, Dave, Lewis, Pete, Shara, Csaba, Scott, Rich, Andrew .... I'm not in it because I was busy taking the pic


-
And that was me just to the left of Dave R.

Here is the Leper Colony.
Mayor Mike, Richard (rclub24), Gaieus, guy in blue (sorry I have not met you yet), Patrick (MuseumMaker), guy in brown (sorry dude, I forgot your name) and Pete (solo).

Here is a picture at breakfast. Mmmm good. They had made to order omlets among much more. Looking forward to tomorrow's breakfast.

Yeah, sorry. I did take lots of photos, but I don't have a computer here so I don't have a great way to upload them right now. Maybe I can get Picasa installed on the Mac I'm using right now so I can process some pics and get them up. So far each night seems to end up with everyone hanging out at the restaurant next to the hotel.

I had to use a Mac to do a presentation on. It was very painful! I almost had a meltdown in front of everyone.

-
Yeah, chris's session was good but he wasn't speaking english

-

I was speaking ruby. Though speaking of english, I can't read your posts now without hearing your accent. Now I can't even comrehend your written english

OK, here is my picasaweb album of photos from this pre-event. There were lots more people there than I captured on film. I got there a bit late, and at some point I just quit taking photos because it was so fun to talk to people, instead of stalk them like paparazi. So there could have been more pics, but this is a pretty good collection. I'll also add them to the main basecamp group when I get approved to add to it.

That is a great set of pictures Chris but I believe you have more. You had that camera on your hip constantly.
-
That is every photo I took at the pre conference get together. I am adding titles to all the other photos. I've almost finished day 1. I'll upload them and post a link as soon as I get them done.

They are neat pics, Chris!!!! ah the memories....
-
Great pics Chris!
You can see the excitement splatting of my face! Although finally have a descent beer (stella) can also have to do with that

To the mods: maybe it's a good idea to have some kind of after-basecamp topic in which you can put all the links to pictures etc?
NB. back at working place, jetlag kicks in
