Conference Day 1

WE decided to take a taxi to the conference the first day.  It was about 20 minutes from the hotel.

I tend not to go to the large theater events. I find them overwhelming and I can’t tolerate the big crowds. So I started my day in the Renewal room with Yoga and then LOUD (a voice class).  I also met my buddy Karyn and some other people, just chatting in the  lounge area. There were a lot of people from Australia and New Zealand

Ron went to the main theater.   In the Hot Topics session there was a speaker from Michael J Fox about needing more people to volunteer for clinical trials

I spent the lunch hour at the vendor fair and In the afternoon, I attended a session on Cognitive problems and Ron attended  one on sleep. In the second afternoon session I attended one on diet but I left early to go to the vendor fair where I got involved with a session on sense of smell and Parkinsons. Ron went to the session on sexual function.  No significant take-aways from any of these.

We took the subway back to the hotel along with my buddy Karyn and her husband John. We had a Japanese dinner at the hotel.
