Around Huai'an - February and March 2014.

The top 2 photos are a group of musicians that entertained our community 1 afternoon, and some of our neighbours
that came to watch them.  Other acts also kept people entertained.  Bre and Julie in our apartment.  Frank and Jonathan
at a hotpot restaurant, the table had goldfish swimming around in it.

Eating out a lot is part of Chinese life, Jonathan with William and Chrystal.  Fionntan and Keyleigh and Julie after
they came to our apartment for lunch.  Jonathan and Frank at a Korean restaurant.  We were lucky to be invited to
Mr Qian and his beautiful wife's wedding.  Mr Qian is a teacher with Jonathan in Middle school.  Turtle soup was
on the menu, the turtle represents longevity.  

Jonathan on the bus.  Mandy and Alberto at the Korean restaurant, Alberto has the gelato shop in Huai'an and its good.
Jonathan and I at a Japanese restaurant for our 16th wedding anniversary. This river is the dividing line between the north and south of China.  Jonathan, Julie and Bre standing in the sphere on the bridge with a foot on each side of China.
