12 - 21 March. San Francisco.
Fishermen's Wharf! Union Square! Shopping! And some catching up with friends whom I've not seen in awhile.
Let's see, a steak dinner followed by a short bout of shopping has been arranged on 12 March evening. 13 March evening's dinner with another party has not been confirmed yet. 14 March may have a sponsored reception. 15 March there is a sponsored dinner. 16 March another sponsored dinner. 17 March nothing planned as yet. And 18 March would be my flight home at 1pm.
The weather will be cold though still manageable at a range of 9-17C.
May this meeting be a fruitful one too! I've taken on an extra role which is to assist my boss in the tracking of some issues in the Government Advisory Committee. An ultra boring role but perhaps it might help me understand some of the politics and sensitivities that goes on in the discussions these government officials have.
After this trip, the next one will only be in October or November this year. And that meeting is likely to be in the African region. Hmmmm....I hope it's a safe place that they're going to. I don't want to be caught in another situation where I might not get to go because of some dumb terrorist threatening to bomb my meeting venue. (Read: I did not get to go to Nairobi in March 2010 because some Somalian people gave out such a threat)
