Hi,
Last Wed (2 days ago) the government announced that Aug 8th would be a public holiday this year. No working day on the opening day of the Olympic Games. I had to re-schedule some meetings and work harder last night, but an extra public holiday is never wrong...
Sam and I will go to a gathering with INSEAD alumnis at the Little Saigon, a Vietnamese restaurant located in the Old Beijing. The opening ceremony starts at 8h08 (and today is 2008-08-08, yes 8 means luck in Chinese culture). The INSEAD alumnis have booked the whole terrace, which has a great view on the Drum & Bell Towers. A large screen will be set up for us to enjoy the ceremony together.
Looking forward to tonight!
Cheers, Olof
