David and I got ready so we could teach our classes this
morning. Because the last holiday, China’s
Labor Day, only had one day officially off, and then took Friday off, those of
us that had Friday classes, had to teach today.
It is hard to miss Church, but this is life in China. We were not alone in having to work though.
When we were done teaching, we hurried to catch the bus to
the Hanlin Hotel so we could enjoy dinner with the rest of our group. The Despain’s, who taught in Jinan last year,
were here visiting for the holiday and so we had a good visit with them and of
course enjoyed the usual Sunday dinner.
Wendy and Jim Purnell were able to get back from Canada about a half
hour before Church started and Wendy made scones, among other things. YUM!
After a good visit, we headed back to the apartment. Life has gotten so much easier since the bus
route changed back to Shanda Road, next to the west side of Campus. It only took us a half hour to get from our
apartment to the Hanlin Hotel! Life is
good!
