Conference: Tuesday - Welcome Reception and First Timers & Friends Dinner



(Me and Shannon from Canberra's Parliamentary Library)

So I quickly went back to my hotel after the tours, met Kim and we got changed and headed up to the Grand Hyatt for the opening of the Trade Exhibition and the Welcoming Drinks. It was really good to be able to catch up with people who I hadn't seen since the last conference and also those friends from interstate who I chat to and see on a more regular basis. It was also great to meet so many new people!


After the Welcoming Reception we headed off to the First Timers & Friends dinner at the European Bier Cafe. There were even more people there who weren't at the drinks so it was just awesome to see everyone. The meal was awesome and the company even better! We staggered back to the hotel down the hill ready for the conference program to begin bright and early the next day!
