The above picture is walking from the subway station to the convention center, which is on the site of the former airport.  Visible on the left is a tall, narrow, red building with a windowed top floor, which was the control tower.  This picture was taken on Thursday morning.  I didn't take any pictures on Wednesday.  I would get up, get dressed and have breakfast at 7:30 AM, get to the convention center at 8:30 AM and listen to speeches until 6:00 PM.  By the time I got "home" and went out for dinner, I wouldn't be done for the day until 9:00 PM.

The above picture is of my Ph.D. advisor, Professor Papachristou, who was doing an "interactive presentation," explaining his paper to people who came by.  He also moderated a session on Wednesday, introducing the speakers and calling on audience members who had questions for the speaker.

In the picture above, I am again looking out from the third floor to the first, but this time directly at the entrance to the building.  The exhibitors are packing up their booths because it is the end of the day Thursday and the end of the conference.
