Leaving Shenzhen

This was the shank of the trip.  Below, just a glimpse of what downtown Shenzhen looks like.  The photo taken from another office tower in the city - there are scores of them.  Across the river, Hong Kong's New Territories, at the center of why Britain handed Hong Kong over to China in 1997.

Not far away, Hong Kong and Macau, the two ancient Western outposts in Asia, now part of China but very separately administered, even down to their own currencies.

I am leaving here with a lot to think about.  One piece of it is how to help young Chinese and young Americans work together in this still-young century.
