The last few days went in a blur. Thursday and Friday were the conference days. It was a very small conference mostly for young researchers to present their studies in agriculture and health. Unfortunately, on Thursday I lasted through the morning keynote speech and then by way of a grocery store for provisions, stayed in my room for the rest of the day recuperating.
Friday was more successful. I nearly had to give my boss' key note address which had been pre-recorded but then lost in the "cloud". It was found with minutes to spare, and while it probably would have been a good trial by fire for me, it was still a relief.
I was feeling well enough and so met up with my friend Miho. It was the first sunny day since I arrived so we and half of the city accessed the roof top bar scene. After that we met up with some of her friends whom I'd gotten to know at her wedding last fall. Unfortunately, I was still not feeling well so wasn't able to eat much but the company was great. Saturday morning I am home bound.
