The serious business began today so we are on for the next three days! I woke up late given the time I went to bed 4:00 am!!!! I made it to the last talks of the morning which was a miracle in itself... My talk is tomorrow so I better be rested today... I met my Langley friends and former colleagues, it was nice to see all of them and yes we are all getting old!!! Today, for dinner, the mayor of Lyon invited us to a cocktail ceremony at city hall, it was nice! Not much food but it is not dinner, it is a cocktail reception.. Tomorrow will be the banquet, I bet the food will be exquisite so I will save my appetite for that... I left the cocktail reception early as I needed to rest and also review my presentation... I took few pictures on my way back so here is a sampling...
