were treated to banquets, fireworks, traditional dancing and music as well as tours <strong>of</strong> ancient kiln sites,<br />

studios and galleries displaying a myriad <strong>of</strong> exquisite celadon ware.<br />

<strong>The</strong> ICMEA conferences are unique events; <strong>no</strong>t only are they truly international in their outlook, and<br />

held in a location amongst a rich cultural backdrop - an ancient culture, but the hospitality to any visitor<br />

is truly moving. I can<strong>no</strong>t wait to get back to China and discover more for myself; the potential seems<br />

limitless. I will be back in Fuping in 2013 and hope to see you there l<br />
