Rodney decided he wanted to go with his Aunt Jen.
So I met up with my group at the SLC airport. We had about one-hour flight to San Francisco. I ended up sitting by these three guys who were buying alcohol and talking about Dungeons and Dragons... Quite hilarious to tell you the truth! Then they started swearing and air-guitaring which are two of my WORST pet peeves. Once we got to San Francisco our flight to China was delayed until the next morning. We had to get a hotel for the night but we did get to go and walk on the coast which was very pleasant. The flight to China was VERY long. It was pretty funny when we started to get closer to China because we flew into some bad turbulence; so bad that people on the plane were screaming! I was laughing the whole time... Turbulence is fun! :-)
We made it safely to the airport though and the car ride to the school was awesome!! They really don't pay attention to traffic laws and people are honking left and right. It was pretty fun.
The people here are very, very nice. We've gotten a couple of odd looks and little kids staring but it's cute and funny. Everything is pretty cheap too. I haven't been to a good market yet though. We got to our apartment and there were tarps on the stairs and it smelled really musty but our rooms were very nice and they'd even installed AC for us. The cafeteria smells like wet dog though so you lose your appetite by the time you get your food. I also haven't had a single cold meal since we got here. Their breakfasts are all hot and it's crazy hot and humid so it's hard to even eat breakfast.
That's all for now, hopefully more soon!
