Short trip to Denver

I’m back from my short trip to Denver. The meeting with the client went pretty well and it was totally worth to go there although it was painful since I had no direct flight and was connecting through Chicago. Following things to mention:

  • once you are in the Midwest you got a different “class” of ppl on the plane
  • Taxi drivers in Denver just hand you over their GPS and let you enter the destination that you are aiming for
  • The air in Denver is definitely thinner and you can get a nice view of the mountains in clear weather
  • The airport is 32 miles outside of Denver and in the middle of nowhere (someone told me that some landlord got a nice deal by putting it there)
  • 3 out of 4 flights were completely full. Where is the recession?

Next station: Toronto

High line park

Last Saturday I was going to the big apple BBQ but I didn’t stay there long since the line were ridiculous long (would have been at least an hour wait to get some BBQ) and it started raining exactly at the time we got there. So we decided to go somewhere else instead to get some lunch.

On Sunday the weather was better and I used that to visit the brand new high line park in the meatpacking district which was opened up on June 8th. It’s cool to walk on an elevated platform that was originally constructed in the 30s to get dangerous freight trains of Manhattan’s streets. See pictures below.
