Has it really been a month?

hmmm. It looks like the last time I wrote anything here was pretty near a month ago. No wonder I am feeling a shade rusty. September just sort of snuck up on me.

The wedding of Danielle and Mark in Winnipeg and was excellent - I can honestly say that it was the best wedding that I have ever been to - and I am sorry it has taken me so long to officially acknowledge it publically in blog form. Winnipeg and all its inhabitants treated me extremely well, which is turning into something of a pattern. It was great to meet the multitude of infamous Winnipegers and hang out again with assorted FISers, and play pool, baseball, bocce, frizknock and other assorted bloodsports. Oh, and have a drink or two.

And now to Amsterdam. I am going to write some proper posts along the lines of Mark's European Adventure Recap, but I didn't keep a journal of what we did or take many photos so...so I guess I will probably make stuff up and shamelessly use other peoples images, like This guy's:



Amsterdam was pretty good. The conference (the reason I decided that a late summer visit to The Netherlands would be a good thing) was pretty good -- not great, mind you, but pretty good -- and definitely worth while, and we certainly saw and did quite a bit, and had many-a great meal. I think we spent about the right amount of time in the city and I don't think that I would rush back but I am very glad I finally had the chance to get there.

More later.
