  Try Philadelphia, PA, USA. We seem to only have two seasons, the current Too Hot Summer (90 degree F and 65-80 percent humidity) and Too Cold Winter (high temps 10-20 degree F and don’t forget the wind chill factors of -25F.)
  
  Some years we do have a few days of Spring and Autumn.

  Yeah this morning – presentation breakfast, with Andrew Gaze, it was raining when I cam down, now it’s sunny and I’m instead inside bludging Internet from Fujitsu’s trade stand!
  
  Seen rain wind sun and that’s just each day we’ve been here.
  
  BTW what’s the Crowne Plazas reputation like? It’s nice and all – but I somehow thing it’s not as good as it should be?

  probably caters to the gambling crowd more than anything
  
  its no Park Hyatt (west of CBD off Spring St) 😀
  
  for longer stays of a week or more, would be worthwhile checking out
  a serviced apartment – pretty good value & lots more space to move around.
  Checkout the Sebels or the Quests perhaps.

  Already back in Canberra – was down for 3 days of Conferencing… At the Convention Centre which is part of the Crowne Plaza complex. So stayed there becuase it was easy. What wasn’t easy was the long days, and the $27/day internet access and $27.50 car parking per day….
  
  Had I had more spare time I would have loved to catch up with people, but for three days there were two nights functions and on the third night I was in the tin chicken coming back….
  
  Did do some sights around the place though – pics to come…
