HSS 2012
Thanks for all the tips about San Diego, I had a wonderful time. Much better than last year's HSS, for many reasons. The hotel was quite nice and so was my room. This was the view from it!
I went out to Coranado Island the first night.
And watched the sunset.
And took the ferry back for the opening reception.
I organized a recent alumni and current grad student dinner on Friday night. I hadn't seen Camilo in forever and it was especially nice to catch up with Matt, who just got married.
And went to the zoo on Saturday with Stacey (her husband was presenting at the conference). They have a baby hippo (the zoo, not Stacey and Adam)!
And sleepy koalas.
Stacey and I were a little silly :)
I also took a trolley tour on Friday morning and had lunch in Old Town and got a run in with an old medical history friend on Saturday morning. I definitely have a list of things to go back to see, but the visit just reaffirmed my love of southern California.
