Washington 2016

Got to attend a spectacular WinterSim 2016 in cold, cold Washington D.C. Given the amount of walking I've done in the past three days, my left big toe has been blistered and I'm limping significantly. On the final day of the conference, post lunch, I needed to hobble down a few blocks to get to my hotel. I thought I was thoroughly lost after crossing a few streets but something told me to take the turns that I did, a left here, a right there, and boom, in front of me stood my hotel. There I was jumping with joy stunned to find my hotel standing right ahead. My phone battery had died earlier so there was no way for me to navigate my way around either. Also no cab stopped on the way, so I  kept walking, one painful step at a time till I reached the nearest main road to find a cab. But miraculously ahead was my hotel too. Surprised, grateful and happy all at once. :)
