Day 2, already?! Where's day 1, @blind-spot?

The beauty of it is that there's so much happening that between pre-day 1 and day 1, day 2 has already arrived.

Since coming to @krolestwo, this has been the busiest that the kingdom has been. Lots of plans for the day starting with an excellent private tour of one my now favourite museums in Krakow with @foggymeadow after having coffee with HBD.

COFFEE WITH HBD!? yes! More about that and the HIVE Vokuntary Service in a later post. But yes, the pilot is about living off of HBD in Krakow.

Here below, @danxios and "upcoming new onboard" playing at the open jam followed by @mipiano after some time and unlimited, uninterrupted jingle bells by @valhus.

Soon after, I had to open up the kingdom to welcome the first people to walk in. @osavi @gtg @itsola walked in not soon after and after a quick trip to a pizzeria around the corner, a few delicious pizzas, came @hallmann.

Can you guess, how many hallmanns to screw in a light bulb? He got right into the final touches of preparing for the day 2.

We stayed until around half past eleven last night preparing as much possible for the day 2. Including for the quiz and speacial version of a HIVE board game.

One of the more popular activities of the Con was the chocolate workshop. With the cocoa beans that are connected to the legend of @mcsamm smuggling them. If @akipponn wouldn't remind me that it's time for the workshop then I'd have probably forgotten about it in the fun chaos of the day.

Evidently, one of the more fun activities. But if I've realised anything from day 1's painting magnets workshop, I have no patience or delicate touch for such intricate activities.

However, I am extremely proud of having the best peeled single bean, and watching it get formed into tasty milk chocolate and immediately gobbling it up by summoning all the gluttonous demands inside me. For the rest, they can have their bars as they leave the venue.

I love the natural conversations that happen at such meets. @jojovi Joined the chain today, and what a great day to learn about the chain and the activities on it.

Also, very coincidentally, having a whole conversation in Dutch with @bogdang who happened to live in Almere where I live now.

Highlight? Meeting @wayward-dreams. I had no clue I have been speaking to the guy for so many days now. I have interacted with him on the chain but never knew that the guy I'm volunteering with is the user I have had quality connection with on the chain.

Also, met a lot of people that I have not met in years, not limited to @polish.hive, @asia-pl, @engrave, and an extremely mentally stimulating chat with @ph1102 and how the general intelligence has taken a nose dive.

And of course, the HIVE quiz! A fun little HIVE based Kahoot quiz which was played by 16 or 17 people, and @mynewlife, @wayward-dreams, @ph1102 took the podium.
