Saturday
(Sept. 26) began with a gorgeous
sunrise. The shots above
(looking east to the Atlantic
Ocean) and below (looking west
at the city skyline and Intracoastal
Waterway) were snapped from our
15th floor balcony at the Pier 66
hotel that is perfectly situated
between the two bodies water. The revolving
meeting room two floors above
us, where TDC's Welcome Party
will be held Sunday night, gives you
a fabulous 360 degree view of
the entire scenic area around the
show venue.

Another shot from our balcony looks
down on the Pier 66's spacious pool
area as well as Orchids Restaurant
(at lower right). TDC has reserved
the entire area, including
cabanas, around the pool at left.
It opened to show attendees at 9am
Saturday morning with people coming
and going until well past 6pm. The
cabanas will be open again all
day Sunday.
Below:
Down at ground level we gathered
some of the early birds for this
shot at the pool/cabana entrance to
the area reserved for TDC. At front
left is THE Domain Conference
Co-Founder Barbara Neu (who
launched the new show with husband Howard
and son Ray).

(DomainHoldings), Jothan Frakes
(DOMAINfest) and Chris Leggatt
(DomainHoldings Brokerage Director) catching up
during pre-show cabana networking.

The beautifully landscaped grounds
at the Hyatt Regency Pier 66
Hotel offer a wide variety of
recreational activities. Here Morgan
Linton from FashionMetric.com
(right) who will be the keynote
speaker at THE Domain Conference
Monday, ponders his next move in a
match on the giant lawn chess
table against Michael Castello
(Castello Cities Internet
Network).

At
right: Michael prevailed in
the chess match but Morgan
took the loss with his usual
grace although he is insisting
on a rematch before
conference week ends!
Sunday
will be a busy day at the Pier
66 Hotel. In addition to the
cabanas being open for
pre-show networking DOMAINfest
at THE Domain Conference,
a special
one day event
organized by Jothan
Frakes, will
present a full day of business
sessions indoors
from 9:30am to approximately
6pm. Then at 7pm Sunday
evening, THE Domain Conference
officially gets underway with
the Welcome Party atop
the Pier 66 Hotel.
The
conference will continue with
two full business days Monday
and Tuesday then conclude with
a Farewell Breakfast Wednesday
morning. I will have Sunday's
photos and highlights for you
in my next post from Fort
Lauderdale. |
