Zurich Day 1 commentary
Arrived a few hours ago. Slept about 4 hours on the flight. Weather perfect 75 and sunny. At a cafe having lunch and an Eichof beer. Not at the Park Hyatt - rate is nearly $1,000 a night - so at the Swissotel at a more reasonable $250 a night for a room as big as my closet. North end of town, not near tourist area. Likely may just stay up here today; it is Sunday so all the stores are closed. Not much to do downtown if that is the case. I ran 4k and exercised already so that is good... I have a work function later and have to do some work tonight before I go to bed, so taking it easy.

Race to Wrigley 5k
I'm not big into running; actually, I don't like it very much, but I'm athletic so I decided to set a goal to place maybe in the top 500 for a race in Chicago.
I well achieved my goal. I placed 133rd out of 3,123 or 9 out of 109 in my gender/age group. That's top 5% overall and top 9% by group. My pace was 6:58. I'm a bit stunned that I did so well. This motivates me to do the Run for the Zoo in June.

Seven years ago I did a run in East Lansing, MI - Bob's 5k for the Listening Ear Center with my friend Michelle. With no training, I placed 5th of 10 in my group, 48th of 304, or a pace of 6:36. So 7 years later with training, I'm able to only lose a bit of my pace - but in such a huge event place much better.

I am THRILLED!

Waikiki Beach, Honolulu
What a great holiday! I haven't thought about work at all, amazing. I am so relaxed!
So far we have done:
Kayaking & snorkeling with sea turtles and tropical fish
Ziplining in the Maui mountains
Been to the Maui aquarium
Went to the La Perouse lava flow
Attended a luau
Saw countless whales breaching all over Maui
Watched surfers do their thing in the North Shore
Bought the perfect Tiki statue
Had a Mai Tai every night
Spent several hours at the USS Arizona Memorial/Pearl Harbor
Ate at Mama's Fish House - a South Seas Tiki wonder with the best fish ever
Met with wonderful friends and tooled around O'ahu in a convertible
Sampled pineappels at the Dole plantation
Who knows what is in store today... last full day at Waikiki!

Las Vegas
Had a conference at Caesar's for a few days and dragged Andrew along. Conference was ok... amazing to see Las Vegas with tons of cranes but no workers, a true sign of the economic decline.
Since I worked most of the time we didn't really have time for a show. We probably gambled and lost around $200 in the slots... weather was hot as usual.

Austin, TX
Small town, cute but haven't had much chance to see it. There is a fun little warehouse area near here where we went to a corporate sponsored party last night. Place was called Pangaea and was very swank a bit middle eastern feel.
Today I hit all of the hotel booths. This is a cool photo of me in a Austin Powers style chair that is super comfortable and has a built in speaker system and a computer. Fun! Cost: $15,000
