Program/Speaker:

Fraser Draper
Fraser is our resident world traveler, and brought pictures to talk about "China Today". Fraser and his wife Dee went to China 14 years ago and again this year.
Fraser's talk today was about the great many changes that have taken place in China. High rises, Cars, the smog and what they plan to do for it during the Olympics. (Basically shut down all manufacturing and traffic within 100 miles). Great pictures of the architecture in the large cities and how Beijing had grown from almost flat with all the Hutongs (low squat buildings) to state owned high rise apartments.
Great job Fraser, lets do it again!
