Lucky You!
Well, V. C., it looks as though you're becoming a devotee of your new environs. Had I been you, I would have bought the moon pie and also asked for a R. C. Cola. (That's what the country people usedto order as their haute cuisine! China is one country I have always wanted to visit, but I guess it's too late now. Probably a good thing because they are rapidly becoming our owners. If we don't get that socialist out of office and clear out the entire Congress, then the Chinese parents will be saying to their children: "Eat everything on your plate. Think of the starving American children" That's what our parents used to say to us except just reverse the countries. You have a great time over there. We prayed for you last Sunday, then your beloved old Dad aslo said: "pray for Shanghai" Wouldn't you just know it. He hot a big laugh as usual. That was in the Knott Sunday School Class. Take care, and I look forward to hear more about your escapades. Love, Bunny

So sorry
Hope you feel better soon. I guess some noodle soup and rest are the best.

Appreciation banquet
I thought you just started teaching. Appreciation already. At least it should boast you for the rest of the year. I enjoy your photos and comments. The children look delightful. Enjoy this experience in a very different culture.

Great to see pictures and read
It was so great to read your blog, see pictures of places and hear that the food is great. Pamela is still having computer issues therefore we have not been able to skype or talk. I just signed up with skype to make calls to her mobile but can't seem to figure out how to make that work as well. I really wish the 2 of you were at the same school. I guess with only 4 English teachers you will pick up the Chinese more quickly out of necessity and you will all become very close. Pamela said there are around 85 English teachers at her school. It will be great to hear and see your experiences from 2 different areas. Well I am so glad I found your blog. Its is great Elli

Vietnamese food
You got it, kid. Vietnamese food is the best in theworld, I think. I created a liking for it when I lived in Paris. It is difficult to find a good restaurant here. Anyhow, you can find anyting in Hong Kong! Loved your pics. I wish I had taken more of them when I lived in Tokyo at about your age. You do remind me of me when I lived in the Orient. Keep it up, because ou will always remember it. Thanks for sendiing me your hkappenings. Love, Bunny
