Luoyang days 2/3

Well after a while with poor Internet connection, things seem better today. The Calgary Sun and this blog are still pretty slow (due to government monitoring?), but other sites are faster. I posted a couple of videos also, but nothing too exciting.


Welcome dinner hosted by FMG at the Peonie Hotel.













Second day of meetings in the new meeting room. Quite nice. Lots of people in the meeting. Looking towards the back rows. Amazingly LPEC has a new "specifiction" for no smoking in the conference rooms! However, the "specifications are not always followed", which I hope is not foreshadowing our project.








Finishing up the meeting minutes on day two.














An English/Chinese menu at our local restaurant. We've eaten here several times during the last two trips. This is the first time they've had an English menu, and I think there's lots of items on the Chinese menu that don't show up here. Someday I'll have to have a meal of twice cooked fat pork along with fried yak with mint.

Last night we had jellied Donkey.

All that five people could eat and drink cost 350 yen, or abut $50 cdn.
