China Updates

We went to this really neat place to eat, It is so cool. it reminds me of China and an exciting movie. The restaurant was upstairs.

The place was so full with people. It was our first noodle dinner, and it was really good.
The thing I am holding could count as a beginning of a Chinese pizza.
The next several pictures are us going out for a night with the twig group. It was at night and we planned to take a to take another boat ride down the canal, but the boat closed at 5:00 pm, we missed it by 15 minuets. We enjoyed our self, and we went out and I ordered the food In Chinese with the help of James (one of our last year students that we went to the wedding in September.) Every one said I did well, but I think they were just being kind.




Above is a picture of Paula Watkins playing a Chinese musical instrument and below is Jay playing his harmonica with her.

Here is a picture of Jay working at his computer. It was freezing in our apartment. The day before had been really warm. The next day it got cold, but there is a rule in China that they do not turn on heat until the 15 of Nov, and so we had to wear coats till then. But then on Sunday it came on, which is wonderful, because it got winter cold here on Monday, and it would have been torture to wait another week to get heat. Today it is snowing. Last year we saw a lot of rain in the spring, but the only snow came while we were on our spring break. This is suppose to be a really big storm. Luckily, we have the next 4 days off and it should be fun to stay in the apt
