Last days of semester at GLIT

Patty is teaching this year at the Guilin Institute of Tourism, 15 or 20 km south of Guilin. Here's a picture I took of a little park on the campus:


This last week Patty gave final exams to her students in oral English. The final for her students in written English will be January 6. After she turns in the grades, she'll be on vacation until February, for the Spring Festival.

In the last week we watched a few movies that we bought or rented from iTunes. Today we'll do our Saturday on the Town, lunch at Rosemary Cafe, then shopping around.

I'm still playing with my Diabolo every day, in front of our apartment. It's turning out to be good exercise for me. Before we came to China I was working in the park around the state capitol building, raking leaves, cutting grass, planting flowers, digging holes for trees. Since we came to China my only exercise has been walking to and from bus stops, and some places near where we live, never more than fifteen minutes each way.
