Arrived safe and sound in Xiamen on Sunday night. Monday was a free day and then on Tuesday, classes finally started. Our professors are using very little English when they are teaching us and I'm understanding a surprising amount of what they say. And when in doubt, just smile and nod. This is an intensive program and we attend 6 hours of class a day. On my busiest day at UW i would have 4 and that was only one day a week. Not a ton of new exciting photos but ill do what I can to keep things colorful. Probably a lot of food pictures and funny translations.

 (Bittern flapjack?)

 5D Movies, Hollywood needs to step it's game up

 New friends on the Great Wall and a funny translation (Be the vest thing to you)

 Spotted in Beijing

 Sounds like a party

 Sounds like slightly less of a party

 An odd thing to find in the Confucian temple gift shop
