I unfortunately won't be in attendance this year. I have to say though that this is a very good idea for a mini-event. I wish I or someone would have been smart enough to come up with this last year, when I was at JNUC for the first time and by myself.

Hopefully, if we can find the budget to send me to JNUC next year, that someone will be smart enough to schedule a repeat of this event!

Anyone else arriving in the evening tomorrow? I'd be game to meet up with anyone who might want to grab a bite and a drink around 8. Maybe somewhere a little less loud 'n' crazy than Grumpy's is sure to be... can always join that party after getting some grub and pre-game cocktails.

I always enjoy grabbing a bite at Maxwell's just down the street from Grumpy's. Good food and a bit quieter typically for conversation. They've got a few tv's around to catch anything that's on. Shoot a message if you want to meet up.

I'll be getting in around 6 and would be interested in meeting up somewhere a little quieter.

I am here and up for meeting. I am staying at the Courtyard. I am hungry and could stand to eat soon. It is nearly 6 PM right now.

@Brad_G and anyone else---I am heading towards Maxwell's now-it is 6:45 local here. I will be wearing glasses with a black Albuquerque Isotopes baseball cap and a grey shirt.

I was a few hours late getting on the road and now dealing with some stuff that came up during the day. Doesn't look like I'll make it. Sorry for the late notice.

I wall-flowered at Grumpy's for a bit, but it's not really my scene. It kind of sucks only knowing people from online; it's like that awkward blind date moment.

seanz

Hey Sam, feeling the same. Probably going to head next door to Maxwells for a bite then maybe aloft bar after.

Yeah i left too. Many of us find it hard to talk to total strangers, but if we have someone to introduce us it can be better. looking forward to tomorrow though maybe I'll meet some new faces in a tech environment where it is easier..

Also, does the four-panel display in the aLoft lounge look like something out of Hackers or is it just me?

Good luck getting folks together for Thursday, I shall not be able to join. But I was just at Aloft hanging out! Thanks so much for putting that together @lucas.sc and the other booking.com folks! A great social event to cap off Day 1.

Anyone up for a walk to the jamf party tonight? Thinking about hitting the aloft bar first and then braving the cold.
