Friday the 13th - no disasters so far!

Early mornings don't do anything for me. I don't know why I subject myself to these early flights that involve me having to get up at 4am. On this occasion, however, I was treated to a very lovely sunrise on my drive to Heathrow - coupled with the main benefit of this drive, which is that there is hardly any traffic on the roads at all. Sigh, if only it was like this all the time! Anyway, I arrived at Heathrow and checked in with one of those self-check-in machines. If only all airlines did t...

Out of the frying pan.....

I had turned off the air-conditioning before I went to bed as I know it is prone to giving me headaches. So when I woke up at 3am feeling a bit hot, I thought I'd switch it back on again. I didn't seem to get any cooler, in fact, when I woke up again at 5am I was actually even warmer. So this time I turned a light on and put my glasses on, and noticed I had actually put the heating on rather than the cooling. Ooops. Got a bit more bearable after that! I had a bit of difficulty waking up prope...

Boy, it really knows how to rain here...

I woke up this morning, a Sunday I hasten to add, knowing that I had to work. What a depressing thought. I had a meeting in my hotel at 9am (seriously, this was NOT my idea!) so I was in a rush when I didn't wake up until 8:15am. At 10am, it was time to head over to the convention centre - just as I was leaving one of my colleagues called to find out if I was okay. As I hadn't made it to dinner the night before, and then hadn't turned up for the start of the convention, they thought I had bee...

Halfway through the conference....

I awoke at 4am this morning because the thunder was so loud and the rain so hard. Was still really hot though. After a couple more hours of listening to this I thought I might as well get up and prepare for my meetings. I headed over to the convention centre at about 9:15am, getting totally wet on the way (nowhere around this area appears to sell umbrellas). Most of the others were already there, some apparently suffering the after effects of the previous night's entertainment. That'll teach ...

The end is nigh....

Ahh, the last day of the conference finally arrives! I woke up quite early again this morning and in an unprecedented move I went for a jog. Quite why I did this I am still unsure about. After all, I had a gym kit in my nice air-conditioned room - why on earth I would want to be running about in the humidity-inflicted heat I don't know. I suppose the idea of going for a jog along the Mississippi just sounded quite nice. Anyway, I didn't last out there more than half an hour before having to c...

Fourth time zone...

... Orleans was fascinating though, some of the bridges across lakes?estuaries?bodies of water of some description were incredibly long. Tim and I commented later on how vulnerable you'd be caught out on one of those bridges should another Katrina arrive.<br><br>After dropping our bags and hire car at the hotel we went and walked through the French Quarter. The architecture was distinctive and evocative and such a shift from New York. There were buskers starting their days ...

David and I went and got a real breakfast at our hotel, with real eggs and bacon, and then noticing time was starting to slip away, ran over to the french quarter for the last stop I had to make before leaving New Orleans...

The Big Easy

The first thing we did today was to go to the Visitor Centre, where they let us use their phones to call Delta Airlines. After about 1hr of dealing with them (mostly being on hold as it was really busy due to Hurricane Dennis) we managed to get our New Orleans to Atlanta flight changed from Sunday morning to Saturday morning. The did this free of charge as well due to the hurricane. So now we were going to spend a whole day in Atlanta, rather ...
