There is a main room that has some furniture and an old kitchen table, and a small bedroom with a sink and twin bed. When Mike s expedition returns from his room, we decide to head out somewhere and check out the information we were given in our conference packages. There happened to be a nice little pub just over the road, so off we go to review the upcoming sessions and decide who will be going where in the next three days. Once we sort out who is going where, it s just about time to find our way back for dinner. There is a pre-conference dinner being held just down the road from Christ Church, so we head over there to check it out.
Dinner is a very chaotic affair.
It is a very crowded, small room and it is severely testing the limits of the reserved and orderly side of my Canadian character. If the entire conference is like this, I ll surely go completely bonkers before it ends. I drag myself out of bed just in time to get over to the dining hall for breakfast. We get to the dining hall. It is a very impressive building, a lot like you would see in a movie.
