Day one, the afternoon schedule saw us visiting Japan, Morocco, China and Turkey.
The World Expo in Shanghai definitely is a feather in China's cap.
The organisation of moving over 500,000 plus people a day through a 5km square area is no mean feat.
The queues for certain pavillions like Saudi's can be up to 5 hours long.
What about our much-talked about Malaysia pavillion ?
That will be on an entry on its own as I have said .
:)
The pix:

"Strange how I forgot to take the outside of the Japanese pavillion..but inside would be what you would expect from the Japanese......all-high-tech with a violin playing robot !"

"Morocco."

"Inside Morocco's pavillion...impressive !!"

"Old artifacts like these on display."

"On to the hosts, CHINA !!"

"The amazing 3-screen audio-visual room."

"The ultra-amazing calligraphy type animation on a 20 foot screen which had thousands of characters all doing different things."

"Onwards to Italy !!"

"The Italian Symphony Orchestra had a hard time staying on their seats during their performance."

"Master violin makers in the pavillion."

"What would Italy be without their designer cars."

"What would Italy be without their designer shoes."

"Leonardo..da Vinci..not diCarprio's...glider."

"Onwards to Turkey."

"Strangely the ancient Turk calendar is similar to the Chinese one bar two animals."

"The Kul-Tigin Monument (AD732) which has the first written document between China and Turkey."

"The Ephesus Library from AD117 (nice number !!)..The World's oldest PUBLIC library..if you dont return your book on time , you could be thrown to the lions."

"A meal at the Turkey Pavillion..kebabs. meat and yet more meat and rice..so with that it was done for day one!."
