On Karen’s second day was a full day at the conference PLUS a tour of Dalian and the surrounds! China’s largest stone animals and the largest plaza was part of the tour. A beach frequented by Russian Tourists was a hit as well!

Karen’s third day was all about her invited talk… And as is customary in our family we all say to her in a good natured way, ” What if no body comes ??!”

Knowing Karen it was a hit!

And they gave me a tea shirt

They are fans of Jenny Craig nutrition and they bring it with them everywhere! In the above, Karen has taken a package of Jenny Craig cereal into the Cathedral of Notre Dame.
