I just got back from the best corporate party I have ever attended. I am currently in Miami attending a software conference conducted by HP. I've been here since Monday night and so far I've had a blast.
The first party was on Tuesday at Bongo's in Miami. There was tons of food there plus awesome Cuban music. There was the added benefit that the entire place was basically reserved for conference attendee's. I had about two plates of food and enjoyed the music for the night.
That party paled greatly in comparrison to the one that was tonight. HP and its partners had reserved a huge swath of beach right on Miami Beach and also in the middle of Ocean Avenue. Again, lots of Cuban food present to feed the 3000 or so people there. There was an open bar, well at least 6-10 open bars. There was an air brush tattoo artist, at least 2 regular bands, a cuban band and dance team, and after that a DJ. Oh it doesn't stop there! There are pillow lounge chairs everywhere, free Coldstone Ice Cream made on the premisis, and to top it off, a Cuban cigar roller on hand maiing free cigars for everyone. I also saw the largest skillets I have ever seen cooking food for the masses.
The party lasted to at least 10:30 but it could have been longer since it was going well after I left on a bus back to my hotel. I kept it light on the drinks but definately had ice cream and a good helping of food. I would have stayed longer but there are more things to attend tomorrow. I haven't been to that many conferences but this was by far the best. I'll remember this one for a long time to come. :)
