Ehhh. Ehhh... *shrug* I've got some mixed feelings about today.
While my presentation's reception was at least more than lukewarm, our exhibitor's booth was pretty damn quiet. It might've been the location, it might've been the backdrop, it might've been my suit... I dunno. I think we spoke to maybe ten people who weren't ex-colleagues or acquaintances of mine. So, nothing spectacular, but a good day nonetheless.
The great thing about today is that I finally got to meet Adri (a regular reader of my blog and a fellow father-of-a-1.5-year-old-girl) in person. *waves* Thank you very much for the great book you brought me Adri! It's awesome! ^_^

It was a pleasure to listen to your presentation. Now it's clear to me what BoKS is all about.
I thought it would be a nice surprise to show up in Ede and meet you in person after all this time.. Knowing you're very interested in Japan, and saw the book at Scholtens Wristers I knew I had to buy it for you. Personally i liked the explanation of gaijin in the last pages of the book. Now i know why Japanese think we're so rude.
