Eight years ago I came to Nanjing alone, on my birthday, and I did not have a good time…

Yesterday was my first dinner in Beijing. I’ve been here several days but every other evening I have fallen asleep before eating dinner, it is a new diet called “jet lag”…

I always said I would come back to Beijing and see the Summer Palace in the Summer, it took 8 years but I did it…

I may once again be in Beijing but I’m still mostly on Vancouver time…

I was actually down in Mexico for a series of meetings, it just so happened the meetings were at the El Dorado Royale resort in the Riviera Maya. It was regarded as a really good trip by everyone I talked to, though some like me probably ate and drank a little too much, but I think that is par for the course for these all inclusive resorts…
