Site Coordinators in PE

All the site coordinators of South Africa were in town for 3 days along with the important headquarters people for their annual meeting.  I was strangely in charge of book the hotel and conference venue.  This meant that someone found the venue, someone else had to pay for it, and I was the random person who got to talk to the inn-keeper on the phone every day while headquarters directed me of multiple changes to our reservations.

The good stuff though is that we got to see everyone and had a staff braai at Mpumi's.  Lots of food + Pumeza's son make for a good night.  Spain's horrible game against Costa Rica was on the TV though and that bummed me out.
