Vietnamese

All I can say is this school is the best. They take us to interesting places, the admin and HR are always around with us and helping us with whatever we need, and they feed us once or twice a day. There is so much food I know I have gained a few pounds. Once I’m back into a routing that will change though.

Last night we went to view a historic Chinese home and discussed Chinese culture. This was our longest bus ride to get there. We toured neighborhoods and the ancestral home of Bruce Lee.

I saw this saying on the tour:

Here is propaganda for the one child policy (and it is okay to have a girl). Having one child will tech the future!

We toured Shaiman Island – it used to be half owned by the British and half by the French. The archtecture was amazing.

We then went to Beijing avenue which is the original and oldest part of Guangzhou. It looks modern today but the oldest area. My apartment is in what would be considered the suburbs.  This is an old temple that has been rebuilt.

We ate at the best Vietnamese restaurant: Tiger Prawn. We had wonderful squid, calamari rolls, tofu rolls, spring rolls, etc. as well as pork for the meat eaters.

This is actually an entire squid cooked then sliced.

This is layers of really hard jello with a coconut milk cream layer. I like it but it was a mixed bag with the rest of the faculty. So much good food!
