The national JALT conference is the biggest language teaching conference in Japan, and probably one of the biggest in the World. There are all the big names there and loads and loads of publishers and teachers. I also have a presentation tomorrow.

I had planned to get up early and spend most of the day there, but I was recording one of the songs till well into this morning so ended up sleeping in and getting there around 5. But basically as soon as I walked through the door I started bumping into people I knew – which is pretty cool!! It was great to have chats with so many teachers, all eager to have a chat, offer great comments about GE and hound me for release dates for the new CDs, and then there were also loads of publishers who I know, who either very kindly offered drinks or wanted to corner me for a chat. I also met up with the people who organise the Thai workshops and that was just great, they are the best bunch of people to have a beer with and relax!
