I never actually cracked out the “real” camera on Day 4 of my work trip to Chicago. It was the first day of the Big Convention and it was a 13 hour work day. It was also by far the busiest day in the Computer Mine Booth, so I didn’t even take many cell phone pictures. The ones I did aren’t great, but I thought I would share them in case somebody was interested to know what the Big Convention looks like:
The Convention Floor.
More convention floor.
You get the idea.
The area at the top of the picture is the Exhibitor Lounge. It is wear you go to get a break and absolutely terrible iced tea.
This area is the International Lounge.
Privacy, but no roof.
These guys are super annoying. Super. Annoying.
Because there aren’t many, I’m also going to share the cell phone pictures from Day 5 and then combine all the “real” camera pictures from Day 5 and Day 6 and the cell phone pictures from Day 6 into one post. There aren’t many of them. There wasn’t much free time when the Big Convention starts.

Kim making friends.
Maybe “friends”.
I believe they are pen pals now.
After the Big Convention concluded for the day, Kim and I went back to Garrett’s so she could bring back popcorn for some people.
The lady working the popcorn stand told us that the popcorn wouldn’t be any good the next day, which made me panic a little bit. I had bought Elizabeth and Scottie D.’s popcorn 2 days before this and it would be 2 more days before I would be able to deliver it at a minimum. But frankly I think she was full of it. Elizabeth didn’t complain about her popcorn. Scottie D. didn’t complain about his.
After the Korean Barbecue place that Kim “loved”.
Kim was cold and had to wait inside.
After getting back dinner I took a short walk around the area to admire the street art.
One last post about my work trip to Chicago! Then we can move on to other trips I’ve been on lately!
