Tuesday, November 25, 2008

Day 1: On the first day after breakfast at the airport, we took the airplane to the capital of China, Beijing. It was a six hour flight. We touched down at the Beijing Airport and we had our lunch there. Then we took the flight to Shandong, Jinan. The flight didnt take much of our time. When we reached, we were all so tired. And that day was the happiest of the 10 days.

Day 2: Its was the second day in a blink of the eye! After breakfast, all of us took the bus to the school, Licheng Erzhong No. 2. We were led to the conference room by the principal and a friendly man. Over there, we met our buddies. Although we were a little shy at that time, we did talk to our buddies. They were very friendly and were confident that they would be good friends with us. There was a short briefing of the school and it's history. After that it was lunch time. Before that we were brought around to see the historical monuments. On that day, we had a welcome dinner by the principal ofLicheng Erzhong.

Dream come true...

The times we had in shandong..
The first place we went to in Jinan is the hotel. We met our tour guide RAIN, and the driver who picked us up from the airport. The second day, we went to Licheng Erzhong school which is one of the top schools in Jinan. When we reached there, we were warmly welcomed by some of the teachers and students..
We were led to the conference room and we had to sit beside our buddies. They were really friendly and they talked to us in a nice manner..
That night, we were invited to the welcome dinner with the principal and his secretary.. The dining room was really big and all of us were fascinated by it..
We toured around the school, visited the student's dormitaries, went to the supermarket in the school and made our own pottery and carved old character surnames on marble.... The moment we went to the toilet, we were very shocked to see that the toilets had NO DOORS and was VERY SMELLY..
We went to the Baotu Spring and we stored water in our bottles from the Spring and drank it.. some people took the water to wash their faces for good health.
The last few days, we took a bus to the middle of the moutnain and then we took a cable car up to the top of the Tai mountain.. We had to climb down the mountain and it was difficul.. There were some people who cried while climbing down and someone had leg cramps! There were people carrying heavy stuff up the mountain for the stall vendors and they only earn 30RMB per trip up and they were only allowed to make one trip.. Therefore, the things sold on top of the mountain was very expensive than those sold in supermarkets

Dream come true...
