Lesson 2: be sure to ask plenty of questions before diving in with your chop sticks.
We visited Fudan's new campus in the afternoon and it was fabulous. Beautiful marble and granite buildings, and the landscaping was phenomenal. It is their new law and professional school campus.
I learned something very important today. It is humanly possible to be addicted to tea on two continents. Dr. Bird has the Chinese people chasing after iced tea for her every where we go. It is simply amazing to watch! The Chinese people only drink their tea hot and ice in general is rare. However, they manage to have a cold tea in her hand most of the time.
This evening we went to the World Expo 2010. I am still stunned. No words can describe the magnificence of the entire Expo park, especially at night. Several of the structures will stay after the Expo is over, but many will be torn down to make room for a new retail district. I was very moved by how committed the Shanghai people are to sustainability and a carbon-free print in the future. They understand that they have made mistakes in the past, and they hope to not repeat them in the future. Fudan University arranged for us to have VIP entrance and treatment to the Chinese pavilion and the Shanghai exhibit. A once in a lifetime experience.
