The SRCD (Society for Research in Child Development) conference was amazing. So much research is being done on so many different areas. I mostly attended sessions on math (my thesis and dissertation topics) and bullying (an area of interest). I also tried to attend the poster sessions where Maegan or others we knew were presenting.

The building our conference was held in. It had restaurants, art shops, and a whole bunch of other things. A very interesting building.

We had the best Chinese that night! I'm normally not one for Asian, but this place was great. I got the least Chinese-like dish, beef and peas. It usually doesn't agree with me, but no problems this time. It did take us a while to find a place that wasn't full. We started out at a French place, which was full. Montreal does food so differently. It seems that the restaurants plan to only fill their tables once a night. Eating out is the only thing people plan for the night. We were at dinner for over 2 hours, and the management didn't seemed concerned at all. (That's how it was everywhere we went.) After dinner we walked around a bit. The company was great. By the time we got back to the hotel, my feet were feeling very sore. I think it was because I wore new shoes that day and they weren't broken in very well. I had blisters the next day.
