Welcome Back Dave....

2010-04-10T15:32:00.003-04:00

Ok - its been a while! I have basically been buried with work and other personal items since last May. I thought things would settle down once Monika and i completed our MBA's and came back from South America, but that was certainly an incorrect assumption!

I have slowly started to get things back in order and will start updating my site and other social media more frequently. Its good to be back online!

Home at last!

2009-05-03T11:09:00.001-04:00

Just landed! It's great to be home!

2009-04-26T04:22:00.001-04:00

We are packed up and heading to the airport. We have had a great time in Chile and spent all day yesterday on the coast. We have taken a lot of great pictures, but have had neither the time nor the internet access to post them. Hopefully we will get some down time this afternoon and be able to start posting..... And yes, I am posting this at 4 am.... 7:30 am flight to Buenos Aires... Yuck!

Limited connectivity in Santiago

2009-04-22T09:26:00.000-04:00

We have very limited Internet access in Santiago, so we haven't been able to do updates. Planning on trying to get on later tonight.

Good morning everyone! Monika and I have finished breakfast and will

Not as bad as i expected... 2 hours

Voting wait even worse today....

2008-10-31T10:14:00.000-04:00

I was hoping for a shorter line today, but it appears to be even longer.... Rumor has it the line is moving faster today so it should only be 2 hours.....

Safely back in Atlanta and on the ride home.

Heading home.....

2008-10-01T02:49:00.000-04:00

I'm at the airport in Madrid waiting to check in. 9 hour flight and ill be home. The picture here is a great view coming off the top of a hill that overlooks the airport and downtown madrid in the background. Unfortunately all I had was the camera on my phone which doesn't do it justice.

Arrival in Madrid

2008-09-28T10:27:00.001-04:00

I have just arrived in Madrid, Spain. I have two very busy work days ahead of me and then ill be heading home.

Bon Jour from Paris!

2008-09-27T17:00:00.009-04:00

I am staying in Paris over the weekend during my two week trip through Europe. On Friday night we met a colleague of mine who lives in Paris for a nice dinner. I am still fighting a cold, so i slept in a little late this morning. We headed out after lunch and did a walking tour of Paris, visiting the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre and many other sites. It was a beautiful day today, though a bit chili, hence why i'm wearing 3 shirts!. The nice weather meant it was very crowded at the Eiffel tower so i didn't go up to the top. I am going to try again in the morning before we head off to Spain.

I'm at paddington station waiting to take the train to Heathrow airport. Its a short 1 hour flight on British Airways to Paris. I'm going through the infamous terminal 5 and heading to charles de gaul so pray for me that my luggage makes it!

End of a long day....

2008-09-23T12:22:00.001-04:00

Headed back to the hotel after.a bit of a tough day. Starving at the moment actually - going to grab a quick bite to eat, wrap up a couple of conference calls and then hit the sack.

Heading out to Paris in the morning.

Morning from the UK

2008-09-22T02:40:00.001-04:00

Had a smooth flight into London's Gatwick airport last night. On the Gatwick express headed into downtown London at the moment.

Heading to Paris on Wednesday and the to Madrid on Sunday. The weather is nice, but looking forward to getting off the road and spending the fall season at home.

Hope everyone has a great week.

Headed home

2008-09-12T13:24:00.000-04:00

Looks like September is flying by already. I'm sitting on a plane in Newark, NJ waiting to depart to get back home.

I was in Hamburg, Germany all week and am running on about 3 hours a night worth of sleep. Looking forward to getting home and crashing out. The next 3 weeks are going to be absolutely brutal, but the good news is that Oct, Nov, and Dec should be heavy with work but light on travel making it much easier.

Congrats to Monika

2008-08-30T15:54:00.001-04:00

Congrtulations to Monika for earning her SCUBA diver certification today!

Its good to be home (well almost there). On the ride home from the airport now. Was a great trip, but I'm glad to be back.Just a quick note on the posts... If you've been checking in, you'll notice that all my blogs while I was traveling didn't show up until after I got back. Whenever I travel, the blogs are unpublished publicly until I get back. That's just a privacy/security measure, but the dates I created the blogs should be correct.After 20 hours in the air, I'm ready for a shower and some relaxation..... So I'm off for now....Dave
