Our visit to Greece was because Marco was speaking at a conference - I got to tag along for fun. If any of you are familiar with Black Hat, this is Greek's version of the conference.
I just like this banner.... (Geek's wife)
The conference is about IT security. Marco was one of the speakers during the 2 day conference....
During the conference there was also a hacker competition. The winner was a 15 year old boy. One of the benefits of the conference is to find young talent and point them in the right direction. I always said that Marco uses his knowledge for good instead of evil... with the youth, a company would rather have them work FOR them instead of AGAINST them....
Marco (among other speakers) were interviewed for a local TV news station.
The conference took place at a horse club - Jockey Horse Club. I've started taking riding lessons in London so I enjoyed watching the riders and seeing their facility. The building in the back is an indoor arena with a soft top.
I watched this instructor give a lesson and I also watched him work/train a horse later in the day.
The stables were very nice. This barn had 2 rows of double stables with offices upstairs. There was also a single row of stables in another building that had been added at a later time.
This horse was getting new shoes. The farrier would say, 'up, up' and the horse would put is leg up on the jack. This was a really sweet horse with a very soft nose....
Another rider getting a lesson....
A jumper....
Another lesson.... very pretty horse.
The stables had their own chapel.....
A fun day and I hope you enjoyed!!
