Umbraco Codegarden08 Trip - Day2 & Day3

Author
Warren Buckley

Morning all I have just woken up to a boiling hot room checked the window and its real sunny outside, yippee got my shorts, T-shirt sunglasses and my camera ready for a "tourist" day around Copenhagen, i'll be back at the end of the day to fill you in.

All ready to go !

OK so we travelled more into the center of Copenhagen and done a canal tour around the sights, which included the "largest indoor golf center" and the little mermaid. So after we done THE TOURIST thing we had some lunch and then went to pick up Paul Sterling from Motus Connect from the airport and made our way to the retreat.

So after some informal introductions outside in the glorious sun, we chilled out and discussed our background and experiences with umbraco and had some dinner at a local steak restaurant, we came back and chilled, but hey that was the first informal day over so we could get to know one another.

We started today (Saturday) with a good breakfast ready for the day with Niels & Per demoing some new features of the next release of umbraco which I won't give away, as I don't want to spoil this for codegarden attendees and other members of the umbraco community, all I can say is that the next release will be really exciting.

Then we followed up this exciting presentation with some open space discussions, which covered various topics which there should be some minutes floating around that I can point you to.

We followed the end of the open space format of the day with some umbraco football 4 a side match with Thomas Höhler being a one man team and out-performing the rest of us, maybe he's the next Ronaldo in disguise?

To end the day we enjoyed a good BBQ and beer to finish a good day, with Ruben providing native Belgium chocolates for desert (thanks Ruben)

Team BBQ

Well that's it in a very quick summary for the past two days. Check back in the next two days for an update,
Warren :)

As you probably know by now; The little mermaid is on the Top 10 most boring tourist attractions in Europe...

I guess the rest will be a lot more exciting.

Btw. I'll be in Copenhagen from Friday till Sunday.

Cheers,
Harald.
