| Welcome to Shizuoka! |
After 6 days visiting Japan, I had fully recovered from the jet lag and it was about time to start working On this page, you will find photos taken during my stay in Shizuoka. |
| 1. Admire my favourite photo...Just after leaving the train station, I met a French-speaking guy attending the same symposium as I was. We decided to have dinner together in a restaurant. On our way there, we met two beautiful Japanese women in traditional costume. I was lucky: my new "colleague" was doing a PhD in Japan and managed to make this little photo session possible. |
| 2. Observe the Mount Fuji (Fuji-San)... Shizuoka is located close to the Mount Fuji and you can have experience the scenery, as seen on this photo. This one was taken by one of the organisers of the symposium. |

| 3. Admire the Granship... The opposite photo was taken before the conferences in the Convention & Arts Centre of Shizuoka, also called "Granship". |
| 4. Eat Japanese style... In this kind of international symposium, the French-speaking people always manage to stay altogether. Probably our English is not good enough to integrate with other groups... Here, we were in a real Japanese restaurant (no chairs and a lot of meat to cook by yourself). |
| 5. Take a group photo... Here is a group photo taken in the "Grand Palace Hotel" of Shizuoka. |

| 6. Photograph a 2001 "just-married" couple... I took this photo after the meal organised in the "Grand Palace Hotel". Aren't the bride and the groom beautiful? |
. I experienced the Japanese High-speed train called Shinkansen to bring me to Shizuoka, where the conference was to take place. Shizuoka is a small city in comparison to the scale of most other Japanese cities. Its principal asset is to be located near the famous Mount Fuji.
