Stuck in Big Sur! (Day Two)

Alissa: I joined the daily yoga class, which I described to Glen as a “guided nap,” and after which we learned the following:

Caltrans *did* wind up closing the highway in two locations, which would have stranded us at the place with no availability for Wed and Thurs. So, score one for us for making the right decision!

The rest of the day was spent attending fairly low-key seminars: the Napa County themed wine and cheese hour,

(aka Fluid Dynamics Seminar)

hanging out in the “Social House,”

(aka Dynamical Systems Seminar)

and celebrating Mardi Gras at the local pub.

(Facial Recognition Algorithm Seminar)

Of course it didn’t actually rain all day as the forecast had implied it would. (Deep thoughts by Glen Whitney: “Weather prediction is hard.”)
