05BE back to say goodbye
Some of the lovely ladies from one of my very first classes returned for their graduation and a sad goodbye, not only to me, but to each other as they move on to the world of work. Hello this time from Neu-Purkersdorf (near Vienna, Austria)! This is the fourth and final episode wrapping up my final semester at Taizhou Teachers College and Nanjing Normal University Taizhou College! Yes, I know, it's been a long time coming, but here it is with 100 photos to boot!
My last couple of weeks were a whirlwind of farewells from graduation dinners for ex-students , special banquets from both my work teams, a few casual get togethers with friends and even a hen's party for our good friend Yama! It was such a fun time, but it made it all the more difficult to move on!
So enjoy this and a big thank you to all my friends, colleagues and students for sharing with me this amazing 21/2 year adventure. Your friendship and companionship is sorely missed! I look forward to our reconnection in the not too distant future.

The Freshmen have completed Military Training at TTC
Hello Sue, Glad to hear that your trip is progressing so well. Austria is a beautiful country, and Vienna certainly on of the world's great cities. All is well here in Taizhou, and many of our days have become a little cooler and the sky seems much more blue than I have remembered. The Freshmen are now all part of the TTC family, having completed their 2 week military training. Most are now going home for the Oct. 1st National holiday. I am enjoying my enlarged apartment. I think of you often and wish you continued fun and safe travel. Thanks for the photo memories of this past year. Hans
