Paris Trip and looking back at 2008

Had a wonderful trip to Paris.  Visited my cousins, the Reille Family.  It was fun doing the tourist thing, going to the Louvre, Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, Seine River, Versailles and then cool restaurants and clubs in the evening.

This year has been interesting - seems like every year time shrinks and things move faster.  My travel schedule was great with trips to Zurich, Prague, London, Paris, Oslo, Orlando, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Atlanta.

I had a great time with the family at Cape Cod - Jet Skiing on choppy water is challenging but loads of fun, especially when you have a 9-year old hanging onto you.

2009 is going to be equally fun with trips to London, Islo (not Oslo), Orlando and Los Angles already inked.  There's surely going to be a trip or two to Europe in the first half of the year.  The Monaco Grand Prix and a week in the South of France is also in the cards, hopefully.

Professionally, things are working out really well.  Both companies are doing well and the business models finally make sense.  Lately, I have been reading up on the health care industry and hope to get more involved in policy and technology related the health care.

Visiting Las Vegas

Had a good time in Las Vegas while exhibiting at the Gartner Conference for Crosscheck Networks.  

- Shopped at Burberry and the Ferrari store, Wynn Hotel

- Ate at Nero's and Sushi Roku.

Flying back to Boston tonight on a Red-eye and will head to Paris tomorrow evening.  It should be interesting doing 2 red-eyes within 24 hours.
