Antwerp is dark
And the hotels here have the thinnest mattresses I’ve ever slept on, possibly not excluding times I’ve just slept on the floor.
Conference pastries: superior. (Apparently being in Belgium does have some advantages.)
Conference coffee: inferior even to other conference coffee.
Ongoing constitutional crisis: not in evidence so far.
Further bulletins as events warrant.

Yeah, it’s pretty sad. I don’t think holding a 2,000-person conference in a cineplex was such a hot idea, though I’m sure it makes the president of the Belgian Java Users Group feel swell to have the place packed like Shinjuku station at rush hour.
But, hey, pastries. And there’s refrigerators full of soft drinks all around, so you can always fall back to Coca-Cola for your caffeine hit (albeit not anything stronger or geekier).
