Conference Picspam - L'Aquila Italy


At the end of September I went to L'aquila in Italy for the Automated Software Engineering Conference.



This is my hotel bedroom which greatly impressed me with its grandeur


I must confess I'd never heard of L'Aquila but it is a medieval hill top town and the capital of the Abruzzo region. The regional museum is hosted in the (ridiculously over-engineered) Spanish Fortress.





The museum contains a pre-historic elephant

a fountain and lots of views:





Even the conference centre was elegant.
