Return

The next day after the conference, we toured Nanjing, and I was shown the city by two of Prof. Wenyu Sun's students, Zhang Liang and Wang Liumei. We went to the River View, and then to Sun Yat Sen's Presidential Palace. Afterwards, we had a pleasant lunch with Prof. Sun and his students along with some of the conference attendees.

In the afternoon I visited with Prof. Chen Wen at Hohai University located in Nanjing, actually close to the main campus of Nanjing Normal University. We had dinner, and then one of his students, Zhen Hui, and Dr.Xueying Zhang took me on a tour of Nanjing in the evening, visiting Nanjing University for Aeronautics, where I had stayed in 2002. There was quite a feeling of nostalgia associated with going in the buildings where I had lived and taught that summer. The quick tour included a stop at Skyway's Bakery and Deli located next to Nanjing University.
