Day 2 - registration and competitions

Jet lag sleep is always lots of fun, but there is plenty of time to sleep in four days time.






There were people everywhere this morning as the bulk of the delegates came in to register. A few stats about WBC. Just short of 600 delegates, 45 nations represented, and some amazing decor and competition pieces on display.





Much of my day was prep, attending the CBA function and then instructors meeting. Not the most scintillating day...however I did manage to get to the grand ballroom to see the medium sculptures competition. Here is just two of the amaxing pieces on display.










































There is also an awe inspiring Alice in Wonderland theme under construction. A Jim Skistmas inspired design that has to be seen to be believed. Here is a sneek peek of the trees at the entry. Larger than life mushrooms, and an amazing 'gate' is hidden behind the trees...










And of course the Australian flag is flying high in the bar...literally. And there were some Australians spotted upholding the beverage traditions....





Gotta head to bed as I have two classes first thing in the morning.
