Hey
everybody i've been in china for about 2 weeks now. It is such a
great experience and so cool! Although I am starting to get a bit
homesick (to be expected) so if you have any free minutes write me a little not
or something and you will make my day :D
So
I have arrived in Kaiyin and am at my school now, the second day we were here
was the lantern festival so our coordinators, Becky, Gloria, and Marine,
took us to a parade. Although more people were watching us then the
parade, experience number 1 of being stared at, YAY!
I
didn't really have a very good view although I did like this picture
I
stood next to this really cute little girl and her mom, the little girl was
smiling and cooing at me all through the parade so I took a picture.
after
the parade they took us to get a traditional lantern festival food call kan
in
english: sweet milk
that
was a really fun experience. apparently in some parts of china on the
lantern festival the let lanterns fly tangled style, I really really really
really really really wanted to do that but apparently it is illegal in our
city... so I made myself a lantern and threw it off my balcony... that will
have to do. :)
What an exciting adventure! Do they have tractors in parades in China, or is it just West Point?
