Sure, professional accomplishments are great and all, but have you ever successfully decoded a reference in a brand new Taylor Swift song without having to look it up? 💅
@jaimekristene @mathowie I think Matt’s idea was to go back to blogging, which I’d love. I imagine my circle would get a lot smaller though.
The Bastei are a sandstone rock formation rising high above the Elbe River east of Dresden. To get there, we took the train to Rathen and then the ferry across the river. And then we climbed…
The Bastei have been a tourist attraction for 200 years, and now there is a sandstone bridge across several of the rocks about 300m above sea level. Right as we reached the bridge, it started to rain steadily. We looked around and bought some souvenirs from the hotel before beginning the long wet slog back to the bottom.
It cleared up the second we got back down to the ground. 😩 We then caught the Dampfschiffahrt (steamship) all the way back to Dresden, arriving just at sunset. Perfect ending to the day! 🌅🚢

We did *not* go to the Australian restaurant. Instead we went to Genuss-Atelier, one of Dresden’s only Michelin star restaurants. It was wonderful, and we drank six different wines all from Eastern Germany. Lovely food, great service, memorable evening. ❤️🍷

Ha. @Lockhead warned us all that it was his first in-person talk in 4 years, but it was unnecessary. He did great! He spoke about building a serverless, event-driven platform at FICO. And he’s another AWS Community Builder! 🙌 #AWSCommunityDay @AWSCommunityDE @jasondunn https://t.co/N682RpFMxq

It was my absolute honour to kick off today’s DACH (Germany/Austria/Switzerland) AWS Community Day in Dresden. I am so grateful to all of these folks who kept the community going through the pandemic, who selflessly volunteer so that others can learn, share knowledge, and socialise. Most of the friends I’ve made over the last 2 years came from this group, and I’m going to miss them terribly when I head back to Australia. You’re all THE BEST, and you inspire me every day. ❤️🇩🇪🇦🇹🇨🇭 #awscommunityday
