I'm in Bali (8th Asian Congress of Urology)

Missed out my niece's birthday on Aug 21 just to fly to Denpasar, prepared things for the exhibition on the day after.

Never been to Nusa Dua, last time our exhibition was in Kuta area. It's quite far from the airport.
We brought so many things and they were heavy.
The hotel was nice, it's at hill, but our room was at the back, needed to walk far from the lobby with our heavy luggages.
After took some rest, we went to Westin Hotel, the venue.

The first two days of the exhbition was good because many urologists were there, visited the exhibition. Susan got some prospects from key doctors.

After that, it was soooo quiet! Boring! Not to mention I have to deal with the principal, this guy is unbelievable. He's so sarcastic, just because we haven't sold a single system.....Can't blame him, he's the Director of Asia Pacific....Or maybe because he's an American? Dunno exactly...
He wasn't helping us to improve our selling strategy! Aarrrrggghhh............. Need to report this to boss.

We attended welcome dinner, sponsored by Olympus. Nice food!
There will be farewell dinner too.....

On first day, we didn't get our lunch on time. The organizer told us we won't have it. But they distributed it after all, at 3 PM! It wasn't lunch time anymore.
But the lunch box was nice, it was not paper box, but made from dry grass. Usually we use that kind of box for gifts/presents to put inside, but they use it for lunch box, hahaha.....

Alicia, new staff from KL, joined us on 2nd day. Bad thing happened as we found out that the extra bed was in living room, and it was a couch bed! The bed was thin, I can feel the wire underneath.

Another thing that Susan hasn't changed yet, the first two days of exhibition we were always late. I don't like being late, and we were having exhibition with our principal, she should know that better!!!!
