| Anne and Nicola from Factiva select the winner of their door prize from Jodi Gregory. |
 |
|
| FreePint's William Hann was delighted to win an iPod from Thomson Business Intelligence. He'll use it to listen only to educational and informative podcasts; honest. |
 |
|
|
|
|
| Alex Kramer of Kramer Research and independent consultant Linda Cooper have a bit of a giggle. |
 |
|
|
|
| William Hann from FreePint is delighted to accept the President's Award from AIIP's president Jodi Gregory. |

|
| The buffet lunch food was excellent, seen here being ejoyed by Eiko Shaul of Shaul InfoResearch. |
 |
|
| Voting with pink cards ensured every vote was counted in the business meeting. |
 |
|
| Bland O'Connor from the AIIP office has the most wonderful smile. |
 |
|
| Linda and Alex once again focussing (quite rightly) on the lighter side of things. |
 |
|
| Randall Marcinko, CEO of MEI presented an excellent session. |
 |
|
| The wonderful Biscayne Bay evening cruise made temporary millionaires of us all. |
 |
|
| But the boat sailing five minutes early caused a dockside-dash and re-berth. |
 |
|
| We were lucky to capture this glimpse of movie star Cindy Shamel aboard her private yacht ... |
 |
|
| ... wait, I think she's spotted us, and decided to pose. |
 |
|
| Cindy isn't the only AIIP poser. Here we have Jan and Mark's recreation of 'Titanic' ... |
 |
|
| ... and a grand descent from Robin Neidorf. |
 |
|
| This photo doesn't do justice to Mark's incredible 'blockbuster movie trailor' voice ... |
 |
|
| ... and Rosemary's glasses were indescribably appropriate for Miami. |
|
|
| Donna Fryer and William Hann chat ... |
 |
|
| ... whilst the boys present Jodi Gregory. |
 |
|
| The multi-million dollar homes are quite spectacular ... |
 |
|
| ... until you realise what you'll be looking out on, and who'll be looking back. |
 |
|
| Our final AIIP poser is Mary Ellen Bates, gliding over the 1920s pink marble-lined hotel reception. |
 |
|
| An early-morning view from the hotel along Miracle Mile in Coral Gables. |
 |
|
| A final visit to the exhibition hall to check out Factiva's stand ... |
 |
|
| ... while John off-puts Mark, tucking into an oversized canape. |
