NRBE: kingsnake has arrived in Daytona

kingsnake.com has officially arrived in Daytona.

I got here very early compared to most herpers, and while doing a quick walk around to grab a few shots, saw a few of the usual suspects.

After getting something to eat at Legend's Sports Bar in the Hilton, I moseyed up to my room to catch a quick nap to stave off the start of a migraine.

Now I'm up and off to wander and chat with folks, but I will be sure to check in before tonight's registration "ice breaker."

Here are some of the sights around the hotel as well as the beginnings of the crowd arriving.

Vans? Who wears Vans anymore? Me and my Chuck Taylor's hit the beach.

The welcome sign at the Hilton, the show hotel.

The ocean; this sure isn't Lake Michigan, folks.

The first of our crew I spot!
