Sep 18: The Last Few Days

A quick update. . .

Since we were in Beijing (in, you may recall, the most gorgeous Grand Hyatt hotel of all time), we went to Shanghai on September 15. Shanghai is very Western, as well as somewhat futuristic -- note the sci-fi skyline behind Eleni in the picture. It wasn't overall our favorite city, it just didn't seem all that interesting, but nonetheless fun to walk around in for a day.

Then we spent a day wandering around Suzhou, a town known for its fantastic gardens. . . a few pictures below.
And now we're in Hangzhou for the start of the Melton Foundation symposium!
