July 2011 - The iPad seminar crosses The Ditch

July 2011 - The iPad seminar crosses "The Ditch"	Site updated on 18 Jul 2011

With months of travel delivering a seminar, Stephen was delighted to be joined by Paulie when he dropped in on NZ to deliver 3 seminars (Waikato Uni, AUT and Otago Uni). There was time to catch up with Paulie's family, especially nephew Justin and new mother Liz who was "with child" when we last met in April 2011. As with the Aussie seminars, Stephen travelled alone but called on local folks to join him. All did a grand job - students and staff. Dunedin was cold. It was warmer last year when Stephen came over to deliver talks, but like last year he got to see some of Paulie's old haunts. It was great having Paulie along this time - she had not been to Dunedin since she had been an undergraduate at Otago University.
