So I'm the worst blogger in the world? Yes. China's been great...we've been here for nearly 2 months now, and we've been having a fantastic time.
Our dance won 500 RMB (a little over $80) for "Most Extraordinary" at the Bond opening lunch. We rode around Zhongshan on bright green bikes for a couple hours wearing these bright orange jackets, then performed in front of a ton of people.
I found Birthday Cake Oreos in Nanlang, and was happy.
These are 2 of the teachers at our kindergarten, Eden and Angile. We want them to get married.
Street bread.
Not really a bread, but that's what we call it, because "The most amazing thing you will ever eat in your entire life" is too long.
Alexa and Leisha making dumplings at Michael's house!
We went on a hike up to a pagoda with some of our students. Here is Joshua, Emily, Peter, and Eric with Alexa and Chris.
Feeding a monkey at the Guangzhou Safari Park.
Feeding/petting a baby tiger in Guangzhou!
Feeding a giraffe in Guangzhou!
Getting kisses from an elephant!
Pandas!
Riding on an elephant was amazing! It's name was "wee da"...no idea how it's spelt.
One day Emily forgot to wear pants to school.
We went to district conference in Guangzhou. This is the view from the apartment we went to afterwards for a fireside/delicious food.
Jacob thinks everything is sour, and his face is always priceless.
We took our first vacation to Sanya, the Hawaii of China. It was great. We layed on the beach for 3 days.
Sanya is also Russia's Hawaii, and people often tried talking to us in Russian.
The view on the beach was great. ;)
We went to Monkey Island. 2000 monkeys...they were cute before they started jumping on our heads.
Monkey's all over.
Hainan ice cream. Soooooo goooooood.
Sanya has a whole bunch of cheese! We freaked out when we saw all of this. We miss cheese. A lot.
Swimming, eating, laying out, swimming, eating, and laying out, then eating again was basically how our vacation to Sanya went.
All of us with our new Sanya friends at our hostel.
Chinese class.
Sometimes our students take us out to crazy fancy restaurants and we eat tons of good food. Sometimes Eden is there and we don't know why...
Sometimes the school feeds us fish heads.
We like sitting down on the escalator at one of our grocery stores. Everyone who sees us thinks we're crazy. Maybe we are.
