I went to visit my mum a few months ago while she was on travel for her job. It happened to be a pretty large convention and she was staying in the host hotel. It was obvious that the majority of people staying there for that particular week were conference attendees. It was the perfect city to have fun and catch up with her. I looked at the conference program booklet to make sure I didn't see any seminars that were of interest to me, which made it pretty easy to decide that on-site registration wasn't necessary or a priority.
During the time that we were there I would have lazy mornings, read and just relax while she was in the hustle of conference mode. We would meet up for lunch or dinner and just enjoy being together. I vividly remember one lunch because we were talking and one of the guys at the table was appalled that I was just chilling during while everyone else was going to seminars. At one point he looked at me intently and said "You're not even registered. You're going to miss everything!". I smiled politely and thought to myself that we came to this city for two very different reasons.
