China Day 4 (and 5ish): Beijing to Kunming, Yunnan University Library
I’m currently sitting in a meeting in the Yunan University Library in Kunming, the capital of the Yunnan province where we’ll spend the remainder of our trip. Just for kicks, I enabled the wifi on Carol’s laptop to see if I could get a connection, and I did, so I’m taking this quick opportunity to post. Perhaps I can post a quick summary of this current meeting before we leave the library. Go go gadget free university wifi!
The delegation hopped a 3-hour flight from Beijing to Kunming yesterday morning. We were finally settled into our hotel around 3:30P or so, then spent some time walking around Kunming before dinner at a local famous restaurant.
Kunming is *beautiful*. There just aren’t enough words to describe it. Even just sitting in a conference room at Yunnan University Library, warm, spring sunlight streams through a wall of windows, and you can see the green grass, budding trees, and beautiful flowers everywhere. I’m jealous of the students and staff here!
We have 2 professional meetings today, the current one at Yunnan University Library, and an afternoon meeting at Yunnan Provincial Library, which is the local version of a public library.
Back to the meeting…
