a word from...

Hey everybody! China has been a truly amazing experience for this team. The scenery is amazing, the food is delicious, and most importantly, the students of GUT are some of the kindest and most generous people I've ever met. Now that we're in the home stretch, we've been trying hard to keep up the energy and seize every opportunity to spend time with our Chinese friends. The next few days offer a lot of free time to do just that, since yesterday we had our last classes. Sunday's trip down the Li River was amazing and we're looking forward to seeing the countryside tomorrow and Seven Star Park on Thursday morning. We also have a goodbye party tomorrow night (time for more dancing!)

As for the team, the swelling in Susan's ankles have gone down, and throats seem a little less sore today. I'm a little more mobile but still trying to take it easy. Dave, Linda, Steve, and Lauren return today, but unfortunately our good friends Davy, Zoe, and Lion have all left. They have been so good to us and we appreciate every time we had together :)Miss and love you all!Joanne
