Here's a picture of our neighbor's one-year-old, Rae-Rae. She's simply adorable and fun to be around when you're out in the courtyard.
The AYA director came by for a weekend and as a gift for his hosts, he gave us these really cool Yale pens, made of a wooden shell with a wooden, Yale crest case. It was unexpected and a wonderful surprise.
This is one of our class' homerooms. There are 65 students in each homeroom, and as you can see, each student has a giant stack of books on their desks.
We are making headway on our production of "Aladdin," and it promises to be a musical spectacular! ;) These are our lead students on the first day of rehearsal.
We often go to Tunxi (a relatively large city about 20 minutes away from Xiuning) and shop at a supermarket called Jiadeli.
Next to Jiadeli is a real, live KFC! On the day we decided to go get frozen yogurt, they had a special for a shrimp sandwich, with seven pieces of shrimp! My my, what a strange meal!
Lastly, our courtyard communal laundry line is often adorned with pig legs for better long-term preservation. Thought I'd share... =)
