Hi Folks,
Just sending a brief note from Dezhou, China. The
weather is hot, likely 33 degrees, but I'm having lots of fun and seeing many
different things. The food is absolutely awesome, with lots of people
milling around the streets, many riding mopeds. It can be very confusing
but at the same time very interesting. The plane ride, although
long, proved quite enjoyable, as the two teachers and myself sat in the
bunkhouse of the plane, chatting and eating.
Beijing is very large and cosmopolitan, and a city that
seems to go on indefinitely. We will be spending lots more time there
towards the end of the trip, but for now, Dezhou seems quite nice.
There's a large lake just outside the hotel, and we all went for a long
walk today, than to a flea market. The flea market was jammed with
vendors and many with many Chinese people curious about us foreign
buyers. Everything went well, with kids stopping on bikes and
mopeds to speak to us. It has been a real eye open so far, with lots of
new and exciting things to see and do.
I give all my love and hope and wonder how things are at
home.
All the best,
GE
