Shanghai International Youth Science and Technology Expo 2010

After a tiring 3 hour flight from London to Helsinki we arrived at our stop over for a 5 hour wait filled with monopoly, card games and trolley snakes and races before getting on another 12 hour flight to our final destination. SHANGHAI. Arriving 2 days before the start of the expo we took the time to see the amazing sights surrounding the city of Shanghai. We went to the world famous Oriental Pearl Tower, a TV broadcasting/tourism tower. After reaching the top we were able to look down and see the world below through a Glass floor but sadly the indoor rollercoaster was still in construction so we couldn’t ride it! At the start of the expo we got to watch some stunning performances and also to see the mascot for the event for the first time. After setting up our display stand and getting some practice by explaining our project to members of the public we were introduced to the judges. We were really pleased with our presentation and in the end we won an award for an Excellent Display Stand. All in all the trip was fantastic and we all really enjoyed the once in a lifetime experience. Even if the food didn’t taste very good and the humidity made us sweat buckets just walking down the streets! Thank you Ms Birbalsingh, Dr Crentsil and Mr Bajgar for all your help and organising!!
