Around Singapore ~ July 2007
July 13th, 2007

Presently in Singapore conducting workshops on behalf of Nanyang Technological University. I have been to a few different parts around the town and the images can be found in this gallery.

Arrived in Singapore July 7th, 2007.
July 8th, 2007

Just arrived in Singapore for Podcasting and Web 2.0 workshops at the MOE and NTU. 7th to 14th July.

I flew QANTAS and it actually wasn’t all that bad. Watched Groundhog Day again then watched The 300 in full. The flight was packed yet uneventful. While I waited at Sydney airport I went to that quiet area on the top floor. Found a comfortable seat near a power point and brainstormed some new ideas for the workshops on a blank word page. Came up with some good ideas and some stupid ones. Managed to recharge the iPod as well.

July 7th, 2007 ~ 07/07/07. How often does that happen?

Korean BBQ with Amy and Sun
July 4th, 2007

Last night Shao Ping and I had dinner with Amy and Sun at a Korean BBQ restaurant in Hurstville, Sydney. Amy was one our homestay students when she studied at the University of Wollongong. The dinner was great! We love cooking the food on the fly over the charcoal burner on the table.






That afternoon we had been in Sydney. We paid a visit to the Australian Computer Society to check out their projection and networking facilities prior to a presentation that is happening tomorrow, Thursday.

I am in the process of uploading four galleries of photographs taken in Taipei back in 2002. Shao Ping and I attended her sister’s wedding in Taipei and Kyoto.
