Our school has over 3000 students that attend it, though only about
half of them are here for the summer session. It is a large complex
that is located pretty centrally in Yuyao, China. There are 750,000
people in Yuyao- I thought originally there were only about 100,000,
but I was corrected by our new white friend, Bob, yesterday. Bob is in
sprinkler systems or something like that, and our first night out we
were looking for a grocery store- as rice is not typically our first
diet (note picture of school lunch). When we did not find one, we
settled for an ice cream cone at McDonalds- and ran into Bob Counce,
from Peoria Illinois. Not only was he white, he had groceries with
him. He managed to tell us that there was a supermarket in the
basement right under this McDonalds. Who knew? We were out the next
day (at Pizza Hut) and ran into Bob again- and decided to meet up with
him the following day so he could show us some other places to eat. He
was a very good sport -and we appreciate the guidance he gave us.
