It’’s been a busy week in Orlando at the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions EXPO. We’ve met with many old friends and new and talked to thousands of people along the way. When the show closed we folded the sides of our booth in, wrapped up the carpets and tucked things away in their place. We then zip tied on the front barrier and we were on our way in less than three quarters of an hour. That marked the end of another great adventure. We are joyfully headed home again tomorrow!
IAAPA EXPO presentation
My IAAPA EXPO teaching session yesterday about ‘The Importance of Storytelling for Smaller Parks’ went extremely well. There were many more attendees present than I anticipated and we received a lot of very positive feedback after the session and all day today on the trade floor at our booth. I appreciate the positive comments and encouragement from those who talked to me! It was an honour to speak of a subject I am so passionate about!
Creative friends the world over
One of the greatest aspects of participating in a large conference is networking. We get to meet so many great people who are so very talented. This year we’ve reconnected with some wonderful folks from around the world who share our passion for this industry. We have become good friends through the years. One of those who looked us up today today was our friend Richard from New Zealand.
