Commuting to work

So I left off with getting to the hotel. I met up with the sales guys later in the evening at the local pub for a couple beers. It was good to meet them in a relaxed atmosphere before getting to work the next morning. The next morning we got to work pretty early, which allowed for some time to have some classic English breakfast, which meant bacon sandwiches. Bacon here is like sliced ham (like you get with ham and eggs) but aged and flavored like American style bacon. Amazing! The work day was good and the weather was beautiful. We had grilled meats all day to keep the energy up, which was good to help avoid the jetlag. Work like this is typical trade show stuff, so nothing exciting. Dinner later was excellent though. We all went to a local restaurant in Thornbury and had this amazing Tapas style dinner. We're in cider country, so of course we had plenty of cider. This type of cider is for kids either... And by the way, there's a castle in Thornbury. Henry VIII used to go there with Anne Boleyn back in the day. The amount of history around here is amazing. I didn't get to see the castle, but apparently it's impressive. Anyway, it was a good day. More to come later.
