So finally arrived at Home after a total travel time of 35 hours or so !I think it was a great and sucessfull Summit and a great Team Building Event !

Special thanks to Dan, Justin and everyone at the Summit!

So finally some of us arrived at Vancouver Airport. For my 1am Transfer Bus from Whistler to Vancouver we took about 6hours 20 minutes. A very nice and fast drive.

So since Mozillians are very spontaneous and communicative, so we have setup at kind of “Mozilla Airport Camp” at the main Area between the US and International Check-in/Depature.

So if you are at Vancouver Airport currently, come and say hi and if you have not already, sign the big Firefox Summit Board.

- P.S its still always great , how Airport/Airline Staff and other Passengers react when they see  we are related to Firefox (also a kind of evanglism

I actually traveled a lot in the last months with airplanes and flying can be so much fun.

On my most flights i was wearing a Firefox T-shirt and its so great to see other People recognizing the Firefox Logo and Firefox itself.

On the last flight from Frankfurt to Portland for OSCON i was wearing the old (but still nice Firefox 1.5 Tshirt) and the Lufthansa Captain of this Plane talked to me and told me that i need to update to Firefox 3

Still great to see this Firefox Adoption and makes me very proud to be part of this Project.

In other news …as you might know we are trapped here in Whistler at the Firefox Summit (thanks Canada, we love to be here, but we need to get home some day but the Crew is working hard to bring us safe home (and the long (8h!) bus-trip to Vancouver will be fun

Will be blogging more over the Firefox Summit later.
