However, seen 4 ADs and 3 WG chairs, seen the IAB chair, but could not find 2 WG chairs and 2 ADs. In addition I met many that I was discussing with remotely for 2 years and it is nice to see them in person. I still did not see the IETF chair but will try to see him on Wednesday. 

It sounds like you didn't come to the newcomers meet&greet (or at least I didn't see you).   But we are around—look for people with yellow dots on their badges for ADs, blue for working group chairs.   ADs are very busy during IETF meetings, so please don't be offended if you find us and we don't have time to talk right then, or can only give you a few minutes.

The best way to find an AD is at the end of a meeting for a working group for which they are responsible (e.g., I am in DHC right now).   Of course, we may be rushing off to our next appointment, but it's worth a try.   ADs also have office hours.   If you send email to the AD you want to meet, they can help you to figure out when and where to go.
