Knock Off

When we traveled with Geoffrey during the Winter Festival, he told us about an entire English village, reproduced here in China, outside of Shanghai.  We think it may be Oxford or Cambridge that has been copied.  We were near it at the time but didn't have time to go there.  Recently this new Austrian village was completed in the south of China.

6:00 in the Morning

The lady we buy vegetables from prepares here shipment for the day, just a block from our apartment.  The vegetable market is downstairs in the building behind her.  Her husband is on the far right.

This pork waits to be taken inside to the market where we shop.

In early morning, we hear brooms swish as the street sweepers clean up everywhere.

Flash Dance

Our students lead this group of Flash Hip Hop dancers last week at noon on the new campus. Gloria is in pink, Wonder in yellow. Great girls and a FUN activity.

Rog chose rice.

At a faculty dinner at a Hot Pot restaurant last week, ZhangYi acted as hostess.  Towards the end she politely asked if anyone wanted a "man dish."  She ordered rice or noodles for anyone who wasn't yet full.
