This morning was an early rise. We awoke to a breakfast buffet and were gone from the hotel by 8:10am. After a 45 minute drive to the Expo, we queued for a good hour, just to get within the complex. Fun times!

Once we were inside, we walked straight to the Canada Pavilion where we were VIP guests for the day - tours and private lounge with Canadian food and water along with it. The Canada Pavilion was full of fun stuff - virtual biking, video shows, rippling electronic water pools and an NFB video about Canadian life.

Afterwards, we performed at the Americas Square and despite a terrible piano and mics and lack of opera boxes, we pulled off a great show. Because of our presence, and the fact that Hey Rosetta! would be performing in the coming days,  today was declared Newfoundland and Labrador Music Day at the Canada Pavilion.

Later, we got the chance to see other pavilions in our shopping groups. Highlights were a wind tunnel at the Latvia Pavilion, snow ball fights outside at the Austria Pavilion and picture taking in the Caribbean Pavilion. Today's only regret would have to be not having enough time to see more countries at the Expo.

Then we had a supper, which included the grad pin presentation ceremony. This year's graduate group included Mrs. Knight, who along with all the other grads will be missed dearly by all her "babies".

After the last lazy susan supper of our trip, we went to an acrobatic show, which we consider the best show we have seen in China. Soon we'll board our plane back home and China will be but a memory.

Goodbye for now, we'll see you all in just over a day!
