World Tea Expo Day 2

Saturday

Vendor wandering day!

After running about the vendor floor, and not getting to see everything, it was time to head to the four seasons for tea with some fabulous people. I took a Taxi and it broke down on the way! It was a mess, it broke down in the middle of the road and I had to walk a long while to the next hotel and then wait 15 minutes for another taxi. And I had to pay!

Luckily everyone waited for me, or maybe because it was on my credit card they had to (sorry!) either way it was a fabulous and filling affair.

Attending:
@TeaMoment, @BingleysTeas, @teabytiffany, Tea and Hats, Scandalous Tea, Lord and Lady Devotea, @rachelkcarter and her husband, Tegan Woo, and another person whose blog handle escapes me :(

Due to the length of the tea I missed the US Tea Growers Meeting :( Does anyone have notes from it?

Following that I went home and poured over vendor handouts to see which I could eliminate, which I needed samples from, and which I needed more information from.

Then there was sleep.
