Some days are so crazy that I'm not even sure how I pull it all together. People ask me all the time how I manage my life and I have no answer. It's simply what is my world. I have an agenda that I work out for each day and somehow it all happens. This morning I was up at 5:30 am and on the phone with someone in Dubai at 5:45 am. Once that call was over it was a quick run through of e-mail, get dressed for the day and out the door at 7:15 for the drive to Anaheim. At 8:45, I pulled up at a co-workers hotel, ran into the lobby to pull up e-mail, and then the two of us headed to Long Beach for a 9:30 meeting. After emerging from that meeting at 12:00, it was off to a business lunch and then back to Anaheim to pick-up another co-worker for afternoon meetings. 2 personal meetings, 2 phone meetings, and a quick office errand or two and the next thing I knew it was 4:30 and we had one last stop for the day. At 5:15 pm, I dropped them off at their hotel and began the drive home. Due to the wonders of So Cal traffic, there was an accident on the 5 South with a flipped car blocking lanes. My nice hour drive home turned back into the 90 minute mess. A quick stop at Rubios and here I am. It's nearly 8:00 pm and I'm still wondering where did the day go and how did I manage to survive? Luckily there are no scheduled meetings for Tuesday and I can hopefully get a full days worth of office work done barring any unexpected events.
Dusseldorf - continued
The sun slowly gave way to clouds then rain. This is not a city for walking in the rain. Before it was time to shelter and stay dry, I did one last walk around the area. The business district and surrounding areas are clean and little graffiti or murals. Found this flamingo? near the old city. While the leaves probably congest the waterways, they do look cool floating on the water. Ornate door entrance. Soon after this was taken, the clouds and mist lowered and the top of tower stayed obscured for the rest of my stay. I decided to pass on paying to go to the top when there was no visibility. Back in my hotel room I saw this rainbow emerge right before the rain started pelting down.
