San Francisco
Best quote of the day, from a taxi driver, “That hotel used to be called The Holiday Inn Chinatown…then they changed the name to The Hilton Financial District and raised the prices.” Unfortunately, they didn’t do anything about the internet. At least when I complained to the concierge, he gave me a password and so I only paid for one day.
Much to my surprise I met a friend from South Africa while I was in the exhibit hall, and we had coffee together. It seemed unlikely that we would meet, two souls wandering around in the midst of approximately 19,000 people.
