Paloquemao Market, Bogotá
One wonders how they keep track of the sell-by date.

Orlando Details
We' flew back to Portland this morning after Colombia and Orlando, Florida. No chance to take pictures today, so here are a few images that intrigued me from Pointe Orlando.

Convention Center Transformations
From yesterday's "square session": The Orange Country Convention Center, particularly its South Hall, is a strikingly intricate piece of architecture, all in brilliant white against the deep blue sky. I took the original color photo and converted it in a couple of ways to black and white.

Orlando Square
Today I walked outside near the hotel and Convention Center. I decided to use only a square format for my pictures.
Wall of the Hyatt Regency Hotel
Sculpture on the grounds of the Convention Center. It's supposed to commemorate weathervane horses, but looks to me more like a hooded cobra.

Orlando WORLD
We've returned to the USA from Colombia, and are now at the WORLD Symposium in Orlando, Florida. WORLD stands for "We're organizing research on lysosomal diseases". My wife is a speaker and organizer of the meeting. I'm here as an onlooker with the assignment of photographing the award presentations at the banquet on Thursday.
According to the symposium website,:
"The goal of the 11th Annual WORLD Symposium™ is to provide an interdisciplinary forum to explore and discuss specific areas of interest, research and clinical applicability related to lysosomal diseases. This symposium is designed to help researchers and clinicians to better manage and understand diagnostic options for patients with storage diseases, identify areas requiring additional basic and clinical research, public policy and regulatory attention, and identify the latest findings in the natural history of lysosomal diseases."
A poster display of portraits of lysosomal disease patients, in the lobby outside the meeting rooms, dramatizes the personal side of the research being reported here.
In wandering the halls of the hotel where the meeting is held, I was struck by the luxuriousness and scale of the surroundings, which contrast with the generally drab and crowded labs and clinics where the research and testing are actually done.
Where much of the intellectual exchange takes place: over refreshments in the poster session exhibition hall.
