Woke up very early this morning to do a presentation for an internal event in Singapore. Yep, I am still in Paris so the presentation was conducted using Skype with video4im.

JiuZhaiGou Day 3

JiuZhaiGou Day 2
We managed to wrap up and conclude CDNC meeting by the morning (incidently, it is a good meeting – I am glad I am here!). So we decided to visit the famous 扎嘎瀑布 (Zhaga Waterfall) in the afternoon. (you can see Prof. Qian waving if you look at the photo carefully ;-)
