Getting to Canada

Finally in Banff, Alberta, for the Web conference.

Yesterday was a long day; out of the house about 0600 UK time, and down to Heathrow. Boarded plane, which then proceeded to sit on the ground for almost two hours before taking off. I was next to a friendly baby (at least I was when the cabin crew weren't kidnapping her to play in the kitchen or show her off to the pilot), and Rob was sat in front of the most miserable old couple, who seemed to hold him personally responsible for their lack of leg room.

Once in Calgary, it was then two hours in a (ridiculously hot) little bus to arrive at the hotel and discover that I was in one (small) room last night, and moving to a (better, allegedly) different room today for the rest of my stay.

Rob had a bigger room last night, and a stunning view that Flickr really doesn't do justice to.

Quick dinner, then bed more than 24 hours after leaving my own bed earlier that day...

Now in Tim Berners-Lee's keynote, fighting for wifi with the rest of the room.

More later, after copious coffee!
