MOTHER'S DAY IN CHINA.

MOTHER'S DAY IS COMING!

We took a 4 day trip to RiZhao by the sea. We went with Richard and Paula Watkins, our neighbors and fellow English teachers here in Jinan. We had a great time. We went by bus.........

Don't we all look happy?

Bought another new hat. Cost is aways about 3. dollars.

Send Chocolates, Diamonds or FLowers!

TAI CHI exercise/practice by Paula while her husband video taped her. Notice the little vendor lady who stepped up to kind of mock her...or maybe to just exercise also.

Dana always find the wedding dresses in the hotel.

Beauty..... What can I say. I told my class when I showed them these photos of our trip today, that this bride is really beautiful -- almost as beautiful as my wife. They all agreed.

A whole family at play at the Bamboo Forest.

Girl playing the Erhu, a one string Chinese violin.

Fun at the Bamboo Forest recreation area.

The famous RiZhao figurine by the marina.

I came upon someone's wheel barrow at the beach.

Dana always finds a wedding. The brides are always so beautiful and small..

SEND FLOWERS, MAY 9th.

A Sugar friend. She (Christine) and hersugar company, import raw sugar materials and processes them in China and ships sugar worldwide. What a sweet job.

Two Buddas...?

Richard always wants the best photo shot...so try this one.

Two Buddist Buddies.

MOTHERS DAY IS THIS SUNDAY.

This little video clip below from an old TV series has a whole new meaning to us here in China. We are not allowed to discuss our religion with anyone! This is a totally different kind of mission. Hope this post brings a little cheer. However, we can and do send flowers!
