The kids who kept us on the straight and narrow in Wuhan!
LOVE YOU GUYS!

We then flew out of Wuhan to Shanghai and met our tour guide from the beginning of the trip SNOW. He took good care of us at the beginning of the trip, and it was very good to see him again. We made a 3 hour bus ride to Suzhou, the "Venice of the East." While here we enjoyed a tour of a wonderful garden, and then took a boat ride through the canals of the old town. We had a bit of shopping and dinner, and then came to our hotel pretty early. Two more days.
Well, our time at Hubei University came to an end. We had our closing ceremony. We all gave part of a thank you speech in Chinese...and most of us butchered it, but our Chinese friends LOVED the effort (and entertainment) of it.
She was in charge of us while we were at Hubei!
John then gave a great speech about our trip to China and our time at Hubei. It was accompanied by my power point. Everyone seem to enjoy both. We then had a goodbye luncheon with lots of laughs and smiles, and a few tears. The next morning (July 30) we departed around 7:30am for the airport, with all our Hubei "keepers" (the students) along with us, lots more tears this time, and it was a hard thing to leave them! It was our home for 3 weeks!
