Harley Davidson Museum
So I arrived in Milwaukee on a Thursday night, ready for a 3 day conference of too much talk and too much pastry. Ended up having a great time meeting people from all over the country and the world! I already knew some people from Argentina and Norway (I had met them there 2 years ago) but also met some other great people too! I Went to an Irish pub in downtown Milwaukee on the night on my arrival. They served some great local beers. Jogged around the lake front area on the second day and had dinner later that night at the museum. The museum was beautiful. Dinner was served very late, and the wine just kept flowing, By the time a big group of us met up later to go out on the town ... I was feeling no pain! We went to a few places and ended up at an unassuming pub. It turned out to be the secret entrance to the Safehouse restaurant. I talked the staff into letting us all in and we drank and danced until the wee hours. I ended up getting to my AM conference a little late. Oh well! Still managed to get out to another pub (or maybe it was the same one) for a few beers on my last night in Milwaukee. Turned out my last day gave me the longest time to explore the city. Went to the Open Market for lunch and the Harley Davidson Museum before heading back home. Looking forward to next years International Functional Gastroenterolgy Disease Symposium.
