As is the case with a trip to San Francisco, I get into the time zone the day before I have to leave, which only serves to make the trip home and subsequent recovery from it harder. 🙂
I woke up at a more normal local time, did my blog for the previous day and headed down to the conference…
Next up it was me with “DBA Does Docker“. Overall the talk went OK, but I got my timing kind-of wrong and spent too long on the demos, so I ran out of time at the end. Another 5-10 minutes would have been nice, but them’s the breaks. 🙂 I got a lot of questions at the end, so I took them outside so as not to annoy the following speaker too much. By the time I finished answering questions I had missed all but the last 10 minutes of the final session, so I hung around until that finished and met up with Connor and Roel to walk back to the hotel and then grab some food.
I was under the impression the final day was going to be extended, but as it turned out everything pretty much ended at 14:00. I spent the rest of the day in my hotel room in a vegetative state, as the post-conference crash began… 🙂
Tomorrow (Friday) I start the journey back to the UK, finally getting home on Saturday evening UK time. I’ll write a wrap-up post when I get back with my impressions on the conference as a whole.
Cheers
Tim…
