Dear Olga, Dear Andrey, Dear Maria, Dear Alexander, Dear Tatyana and Dear All (I don’t remember all the names), I am back in France since yesterday afternoon and my mind is full of good memories of this colloquium. The colloquium has been successful thanks to you. All the feedback I got from the participants were laudatory. They talked about your efficiency, kindness and your warm welcome. I realise that it took you a lot of hard work and you deserve to rest a bit right now. Many thanks again.

Congratulations for the success of SCD2 colloquium! We are all now safely back in Japan. The gift was a great surprise for me. I share the picture in all Japanese delegates. I hope to see you at the next opportunity.

Dear Olga and others members of the Organizing Committee: thank you very much for the photos you made available, for the welcome dinner and in general for the organization of the Colloquium.
