受同行友人邀請，四月初到大阪參加業界學術會議，順道觀賞大阪櫻花。

出席了香港大學圖書館舉辦的 Leadership Institute 而到了上海一趟，順道約了住在南京的 Gary 及 Christine。

這是第三次跟隨香港圖書館協會參加海外訪問團，訪問過東京国立博物館圖書館、国立新美術館、多摩美術大學圖書館、国立国會圖書館、国立公文書館圖書館及武藏野美術大學圖書館。

Requested from Alan, I took his camera to Brooklyn Pier shooting at Manhattan East. Came out quite nice.

久違了的香港圖書館協會海外考察團，雖然我在五月尾才到過新加坡旅遊，但我還是爽快地報了名。一來是這些圖書館並不一定可以隨便參觀，二來是可以憑這次機會跟海外圖書館打交道。

聯和墟開了一家超大 759 店，適逢 759 減價，買了波蘭排骨及智利蟹肉當晚餐，加上去年在 759 買的紅酒，剛巧全部都是 759 貨。

Pictures was shot around late January 2001 when Alan was in the New York. All pictures were taken by him with his Minox camera.
