Trips to China 2009 and 2010

The October trip was part of participation in the Livable Cities and Eco Architecture Conference held in Chongqing, and two presentations given in Beijing on Carbon Neutral Design.

The March 2010 Trip was organized by Mr. Andy Cluff of Loretto Abbey Secondary School in Toronto. We visited Beijing (cold and snowy), Xi'an (hot and humid), Guilin (temperate and a bit muggy) and Shanghai (international city).

The following will take you to links on my Facebook page, each with a 200+/- image album of a part of the trip. Enjoy! Terri tboake@uwaterloo.ca
