After a very long flight starting from Hamburg via Dubai I arrived in
Guangzhou, China.

the 34th congress of the Society for Animal Genetics Conference takes place.

Finally, I arrived deadly tired after a long traveling time
of 31 hours in Xian, the very famous historical city in china with a history
going back almost 3100 years.
8 milliion inhabitants are living in Xian. IThe city is worldwide
