Today...

...was a very odd day in terms of weather. It is pretty cold here all the time now but we never know how cold its going to be since we don't watch the Chinese news.

Today I opened a window and it was very cold outside. So were wore sweaters and heavy coats to our 8am class. That afternoon, when we went to class around 1:30pm, it was almost hot outside. It had warmed up considerably. Class lasted until about 5pm. When we came outside, it was so foggy you couldn't see the next building, but it wasn't that cold. Just odd to me...

Ok! So tonight, we leave for Beijing! I know I said I was going to post about the trip to Ningbo, but I didn't. I will try to make it a priority to post about Beijing, but I won't make any promises so I won't feel bad if I never do it.

We are taking an all-night train to Beijing. Its going to be about 10 hours. We leave tonight at 10:21pm and arrive at about 7am tomorrow morning. It should be a very new experience for us. I'll be sure to post pictures.

Speaking of posting pictures, we have a new website for pictures! There are 5 albums so far and its so much faster to load the pictures on there rather than here. Go take a look at:

The pictures there are of Ningbo, Nanjing, and a Halloween party we had.

We will update you more later!!
