First Day Eval of TechEd Barcelona

So today was a long day, we left our hotel early this morning at about 5:15 by transfer to Schiphol Airport. When Michel and I arrived there we decided to start off with a breakfast because we were both quite hungry and we hadn’t had food since well like 6 hours ;) Almost immediately I was phoned by Brian and Yousef where we were, and so we met all the Dutch MSP’s.

So fast forward to Barcelona it was really nice weather about 20 degrees and nice sunshine so that was already a vast improvement over Amsterdam where we had heavy showers on departure, so we’re off to a good start here.

After doing some initial shopping and another breakfast at Mc Donalds at the Sagrada Familia we went over to the CCIB Conference center. where we were just in time for the keynote by Jason Zander, General Manager for Visual Studio.

We’ve made a lot of photo’s and already did some interviews which will be up on Channel 8 and DotNetSkool.nl sometime next week probably.

Tonight we had diner with Microsoft Netherlands including all Dutch MSP’s which was really nice, who doesn’t love tapas ;).

So now I’m off to bed, because tomorrow will be another long day. I’ll try and keep you guy’s posted, so please keep checking back.
