Huge I say, Huge!

April 19, 2010

The convention center is huge. I can't think of any other word. The photo is taken from the corner looking down the street. As far as you can see - the convention center. Today there are two or three other events taking place in the center - make sure you go to the correct hall. The Expo is in the set up mode. When you get inside start walking. You need to be at the "H" Exhibit Hall.

I am so glad I brought 2 pairs of running shoes. I hope you all did. I would not want to be wearing dress shoes here!
