This was the first day of my trip west for Siggraph and Google. I started in Philadelphia with this breakfast
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1018
as I glanced around the food court
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1019
but before I knew it, I was on the other coast and this car was picking me up
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1020
to take me to this restaurant
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1021
or maybe this restaurant
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1022
where the menu
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1023
kept Syl
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1024
and Dan
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1025
engaged as I took this self portrait
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1026
and then SYl
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1027
admired my salad
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1028
as Dan had eggs with his salad
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1029
and Syl had these eggs
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1030
which fueled us for the trip home to see the orchid
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1031
as Syl discussed plans for dinner
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1032
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1033
and we were eventually off for Marrakesh
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1034
where our meal began with the hand washing ceremony (with rose scented water) for Dansyl
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1035
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1036
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1037
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1038
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1039
after which I admired the decor from the ceiling
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1040
and the walls
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1041
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1042
and the people at our table, Syl
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1043
Dan
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1044
and this self portrait of myself
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1045
before the soup
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1046
and salads
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1047
arrived and this group picture of me with Dansyl
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1048
was taken by our waiter
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1049
before the main courses, involving more food than we could possibly eat, arrived
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1050
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1051
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1052
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1053
and as the belly dancer did her thing
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1054
we considered wandering off into the outside world where gas cost more than three dollars a gallon
../../../Sabbat/2005/07.23-08.06.05PrincetonSiggraphGoogle//IMG_1055
and called it a night.
