, mostly just "seen." I mainly just wandered around and took in the sights, while listening in on very few panels and watching very few shows.
So here's a sampling of what I saw:
 |
| Indonesian dancers. |
 |
| Those manning the booth make origami. |
 |
| Relaxing at the Thailand booth. |
 |
| She's just beautiful. |
 |
Ziplining, courtesy of the Ecuador Love Life campaign. When I got there the wait was 90 minutes, so I passed.
|
 |
Scuba tank. Passed on this too, despite a very insistent man who asked me to go scuba diving
with him and said we were going to get married. |
 |
| They're friendly at the American Association for Nude Recreation. No really, they are. Really nice people. |
|
Kelly Merritt, Johnny Jet, George Hobica and Mary Forgione at the
Cents & Sensibility - Practical Tips to Save Money with Online Travel panel. |
 |
| Forgot where this was for. |
 |
| A rare winner at the LA Times booth. If you won, you mainly got T-shirts and a Zagat book. |
 |
| The more common result. Let's see, there are 22 slots, and only six are empty. So you should have a 72.7 percent chance of landing on a prize slot, correct? Yet strangely enough, during the 10 minutes I stood watching, only about 25 percent of people won (if that). Guess mechanical wheels just defy the rules of probability. |
 |
Here's a wheel I like! The nudists are giving away items such as pizza cutters and lip balm.
I really wanted a pocket knife, but all I got was this lousy jar opener. |
 |
| Really? If you're just gonna wear it and trash it, what's wrong with buying Hanes at Wal-Mart? |
 |
| My next destination (hopefully). |
 |
| This Costa Rican animal kinda creeped my sister out. |
 |
| The Nepal booth. With two Miss Taiwans in the middle. |
 |
| Pretending that I, too, am royalty at a booth, with my Medieval Times crown. |
|
The AAA travel agents were busy. |
