Anyway to put everything in a nutshell, i flew to Frankfurt airport on Sunday (9Nov), then took a train from the airport's station down to Siegburg's station, when we took a cabbie to our hotel Maritim Hotel, Bonn.
Our conference meeting place was held at Deutsche Telekom Headquarters, just 10mins walk away from the hotel. So basically I spent almost my entire week from Monday - Friday at these 2 places. Walking to & fro every morning + evening from Maritim hotel - DT headquarters & back again to hotel.
On Saturday (15 Nov), we started our real holiday (woohoo~) by taking train back to Frankfurt main city station, where we stayed in a nice & cosy hotel called Hotel Astoria for another 2 more days, before we flew back to Sg on Monday (17Nov) night.
Didn't take a lot of pictures this time round, only a little more during the last 2 days when we went for the day tours in/near Frankfurt. Took tons of videos of the places instead, as strongly requested by my dear Andy haha.. =p
Anyway here are some pics i took during the conference week. ;)
Background's the Maritim hotel, and the one at the top corner's DT headquarters, where the conference was held. Bottom picture was the road which I have to walk everyday.. in thick clothing, heavy laptops & barangs!

Simple lunch during the 4-day conference... german style....
Vege tikka, bread (lots!), bratwurst sausages.. pastries.. & really yummy (but gross-looking) soups!!

On Wednesday night when I'm so tired I don't bother to go for the networking dinner, chose to stay in my cosy hotel room & ordered room service. Prawn skewers set - comes with a big bowl of fries and salad. DELICIOUS! 24 Euros. Claimable. =p

Friday night, after the hectic conference week ended, we went down to Bonn city for some shopping & dinner. I ordered fried fish with rice & steamed veges. Bowl of mushrooms to share.. 14 euros. Not claimable.

Sat morning - Train station @ Bonn city station - 1 hr 50mins ride to Frankfurt city station. Self-portrait time! I look so round & puffed-up! Argh!
We sat 2nd class seat, costs us 70+ euros. *faints* Fyi, 1st class seat's 100+ euros & i seriously feel there's not much difference between the 1st & 2nd except probably there's slightly more privacy & the seats are cosier?
kz i'm tired... continue soon! ^^
