English Corner

These are some of the young people we met at English Corner. This is a very interesting phenomena in China. It's an open invitation for Chinese who want to speak English with other Chinese or with foreign English speaking people to come to numerous meeting places in the cities of China to talk to one another in English. This is so that the Chinese people can hear the English language spoken and correct and practice their own oral language skills.

We had such an enjoyable time here with our friends. We went to church (an international fellowship) where we had to show our passport to attend - it's for foreigners only. Felt strange. It was really fun bicycling around. Our first experience bicycling in China! Definitely can be a rush at times! We went for this awesome food - a little hard to find but it was worth it! It was ribs and they were really tender and tasty. Then we went to this coffee shop that made us feel like we were in Canada and had a great time visiting with other people. It was a lot of fun to gab with our friends and meet their Chinese & foreign friends.
