At my first ApacheCon. Not really surprising in that I have already had plenty of beers.
I arrived at AMS, and was impressed with the airport. Clean, open, fresh; unlike say LHR, LGW etc. My bag was out by the time I got the baggage reclaim belt. Cool. Then onto the train to Amsterdam Centraal. Apart from waiting for over 5 minutes for someone to find the English button my transition to the next link in the transport chain went really well.
I opted for fairly short 10 minute walk down the canal to the hotel, and then was given my room upon checkin, shortly after 10:30. Again, cool.
This morning, Nick and I did our TAC bits and welcomed the applicants who arrived today.
My week is going to be hectic, but fun.
