Now that I've had a bit of vacation, I thought I should get back on task. I had promised a couple more photos from China and the last half of my trip, so here they are.
Teaching in China. We (Devon and myself) team "taught" about our school district, school, and student life during our last day in Anshan. It was mostly a Q&A session, but it was enjoyable interaction with the students from our sister school. Only myself and one other teacher "taught" while at the school due to time restraints, and I felt very fortunate to be chosen to share about what their students should expect when they come to JC.
Petting the turtle for luck outside the Jade Buddha on the fringes of 219 Park in Anshan.
On one of the peaks of Qianshan Mt.
After hiking Qianshan Mt. we ate at a wonderful restaurant that essentially functioned as a large greenhouse. There were even 5 or 6 peacocks roaming around also.
Signing agreements with our sister school. We had students from Anshan Angang Senior High School come to visit us in June and we're anticipating sending a group of students back to China in April 2011.
Our last dinner in Anshan. We experienced the most wonderful hospitality while in China and had such a great time. I already miss the people I met on the trip, and I hope that I'll be able to make it back in the future.

Maybe we can hear more about your trip when we visit Swiss Days. It was only about 12 weeks ago--can you believe it! It will be interesting to see how this connection plays out for J Co in the coming years, and we hope you can keep in touch with the people you met. Hope you are having a good summer--are you gardening? love, auntS
