The next morning, we got up bright and earlier – earlier than we would have liked thanks
to the smoke alarm at the hotel. Marsha led the way
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090003
into Hobbee's where this gentleman
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090004
brought my tofu scramble
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090005
complete with their famous blueberry coffee cake and exceedingly strong cinnamon tea.
After a break, I went to Portal where they gave me this
badge
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PortalBadge
and let me in to see John Little
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090006
and hear about the exciting things happening there while
drinking this water
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PortalWater
My next stop was Network
Appliances where this woman
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090007
was kind enough to give me this badge
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//NetAppTKBadge
so that I could see Tom Kessler
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090008
and drink this Snapple
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//NetAppTKSnapple
After finishing with Tom, I admired the company flags
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090009
and sculptures
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090010
before heading across the street to this establishment
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090011
where this gentleman
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090014
prepared coffee for Peter
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090012
and Marsha
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090013
We returned across the street to Network Appliances
and got new badges
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//NetAppDWBadge
that let us see Dan Warmenhoven in a
variety of poses, first in cardboard
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090015
then in front of the company's logo
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090016
and finally in front of their products
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090017
Along the way, I drank this water
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//NetAppDWWater
We left after dark and I followed their car
../../../Sabbat/CAtripPics//PB090018
back to Palo Alto.
