Day Two: Business Meeting, Bridge Climb and Dine Around

WOW!
These are pictures of pictures ....they look better in person!








Bryon, Nima, and Brad at the pub

















We woke up this morning at 5:15, and began getting ready for the day. We dressed and met downstairs to catch the bus to breakfast. We were taken to the Mariott and had a bufffet that included bacon, sausage, eggs benedict, fruit, scrambled eggs, and a pastry and muffin bar. After this we were walked to the city hall of the business meeting. I will post some pictures of the SC district in the theatre. After the business meeting we were bussed back to the hotel and then had to quickly get ready for the bridge climb. We changed, then went to a pub on the corner that also served pizza. We tried the Pepper Kangaroo pizza that included native berries and kangaroo meat (I can't believe I ate that....Bryon jnust told me that was what the meat on the pizza was...I guess the name of the pizza should have given it away....no wonder I have had heart burn all afternoon. YUCK!) But anyway....ok so then we walkewd over to the bridge climb location. This was so fun and truely a once in a lifetime event! We were not allowed to take a camera on teh bridge, but did buy some photos. I will try and take a phot of a photo and post it...The bridege climb lasted approximately three hours, but was well worth it and flew by!! Here is the link if you would like to check it out: http://www.bridgeclimb.com/ We had perfect weather for the climb. It was overcast, and very windy which added to the adrenaline rush of the climb (38 knotts wind) but it was not really hot as it would have been if the sun had been beaming down. After the clinmb we stopped by a local pub and grabbed a Australian Beer, then headed back to the hotel to get ready. I am sitting here trying to quickly get ready for the dine around, and complete this blog entry at the same time! Rush, rush! We are going to eat at the Boat Cruise Restaurant...and no it is not a boat, or a cruise, it just happens to be the name of the restaurant. We re going with a group of our friends....pictures of that to come later tonight :0) Hello all at home! We miss you! :0)
