On Tuesday evening a Danish PDC Attendee dinner was arranged at Hard Rock Cafe in Beverly Center. Some os us met in the hotel lobby and drove off in a taxi to the Cafe. The driver in my taxi drove like there was no tomorrow! I was beginning to think that I would never pick up another piece of swag!!! Luckily I survived
It was a pretty cool event, and great to meet up with all the Danes attending the PDC: Actually there was a lot more Danish attendees than I had thought. We must have been around 30, and the official Microsoft Denmark guys says that a lot more Danes have actually got conference passes. After hanging out at Hard Rock, it was time to continue on and go to the PDC Influencers party at White Lotus. On another cab and off we went.
White Lotus is apparently a place where the famous and celebrities go out. It’s a combined club and sushi-bar, and everthing was paid for. So free bar, free sushi ,free deserts, and what not. At White Lotus they have bed sheets hanging down from the attic in and on which nice looking ladies dance, twirls, and performs for the audience! There’s some pictures of it in the gallery. It was pretty fun, almost only male geeks at the club with digitial cameras, so the ladies are foreverfied on digital media

A couple of the Cool Kids™ in the .NET world was at the party aswell. I spotted Richard Campbell and Carl Frankling from DotNetRocks, aswell as Rory Blyth from Microsoft. And I shook Carl Franklins hand, and told him how much I like his show, and how it’s saved me for quite a lot of boring bus rides. Pretty cool!

Took a cab back to the hotel; I drove with an incredibly obnoxious driver.
Went straight to bed; it was a long day!
