Sorry can't make it

I will be in Beijing on Monday the 17th again, I could meet with you guys on
Tuesday or late Monday.  I am sorry July 11th was pre-empted I will be in
Shanghai, Huanshang and Changsha.  I will leave Beijing on the 23rd.

Might leave Beijing as early as tomorrow, so today would be OK.
