Members are arriving

As it is closer to the conference, members are arriving. We have people from China, Canada, and PA, USA arrived.

I took a few friends to the Huntington Library and Botanical Garden today. We had great time. These ladies were very tired by the end of the day.

We first went to have some Chinese lunch. We each had a nice cold drink before heading to the Huntington Library. It was pretty hot today. We only had time to walk in the formal garden, the new Chinese garden, the Japanese garden, and the rose garden. Wish we have more time to enjoy the lovely ground of Huntington Library.
I remember the Pressed Flower Gallery is near by. We stopped there. The gallery was closed. We were trying to peak in. Fortunately May's brother is still there. I have introduced ourselves and asked if we could go in to look around. He was very nice letting us in. Then May came as well. Here we are in front of the Pressed Flower Gallery.
I had to stop by to get some shaved ice after a hot day. Everyone enjoyed some. We then decided to have dinner and wait for the traffic to die down there. We had nice Shanghai dishes.
