The attendances at the reception. They were all Ingrid's acquaintances.
And the atmosphere of physics session. It was so crowded.
Ingrid stood in front of the chemistry session's posters. My impression
was much japanese people here than in the physics session...
Ingrid met and talked with her another acquaintance in the chemistry
session.
The posters in the chemistry session.
They are Mr. Tanaka's elder brother's family. The niece of him seemed to
be so tired after a loooong trip from Japan.
According to Mr. Tanaka's brother talking, Mr. Tanaka evacuated already
to evade from massmedia and interviews, but when I stood in front of the
posters, Mr. Tanaka appeared surprisingly and wrote his signature down on
the poster.
This room would be opened for the lectures on the next day (Sunday),
but I was not there because I had another night event at the same day
just after this reception...
Reception 2
I met Prof. Totsuka at the reception by the ambassardor of Japan.
The couple on the left side was Prof. Koshiba's relatives and the woman
on the right side was Prof. Totsuka's wife.
The ceremony
Just before of the opening of the Nobel Prize Award Ceremony. My seat
was in the right wing balcony where man can look at all Laureates
beneath. The Royal Family members were sitting just below our balcony.
We were waiting Nobel Prize Laureates come in.
I was there!
Prof. Koshiba was sitting the second seat from the left and Mr. Tanaka
was sitting the fifth seat also from the left. The order of seats for
Laureates was physics, chemistry, physiology and medicine, literature,
and economy.
These were the moments that the Laureates were going to step forward
to get their prizes.
The musiks that were played at intervals were also nice. At this time
two famous Swedish trumpet players were invited players.
All Nobel Prize Laureates have recieved their prizes.
