Seoul, Korea
We were only in Seoul for a day and a half
Lots of bright neon
Traditional Korean dinner - good thing it was a "set meal" because we couldn't read the menu or converse with the staff!
Korean wine - kind of like Sake but maybe worse
Lots of street vendors selling food on sticks
View from our Korea office building (outside of Seoul)
Shanghai, China
People's Park....no kidding!
People push and shove, there's no concept of personal space...quite a different culture.
View of the Bund
Lots of European buildings
Pearl Tower
Touristy area of Shanghai, I think it's called Fu Gardens
French Concession of Shanghai
Feels like you're in Europe!
Funny cab rules.
One of the Shanghai bridges - couldn't ge a very good pic
Holding on for dear life, on our way to visit a university
Chunming (co-worker based in Singapore) went to Korea and Shanghai with me
University of Shanghai Science and Technology
Tree-lined campus
Mr. Mao greeted us in the middle of the campus
College of Optics
