Finally arrived at the Big Nerd Ranch!

Sunday, August 20th, 2006

I finally got here, after a sprint through Detroit Airport, ending up at the wrong hotel and some delayed baggage. Ah well at least I made it!

The Big Nerd Ranch is a concept rather than a place. The venue for this cocoa bootcamp has been moved to Serenbe . I must say the venue looks fantastic, very picturesque and certainly quiet. A million miles away from the UK, with only Cocoa to concentrate on. My room is extremely comfortable, with a large bed and a great view from the window. I popped into the classroom briefly to find Aaron setting up. He seemed taller than I expected (and no I don’t know why I thought he’d be shorter).
I’m really looking forward to the week ahead, and more importantly dinner this evening!
