Glad you enjoyed most of the Summit, Orn - sorry the Ethiopian didn't work out so well.
Too short doesn't even come close to how I felt about it, even though I was there for an extra week (almost). The last day (Friday), I drove out 159 at about 1:30am (after the Thunder show), and I think I got some interesting night shots. The moon was almost full, so i didn't see the Milky Way, but I figured out some of the settings on the camera and managed to get some moonlit scenes, as well as a few stars.
Won't clutter your blog with my angst, but there were definitely some desperately depressed and lonely moments of my vacation ... the best part was certainly when I had people to share my experiences with. (I might have been able to change that perception if I hadn't been the only solo male at Thunder and far too chicken to get in line with all of the girls to get a photo with the dancers at the end of the show ...)
