Saying goodbye to my babies

video

It's the rainy season in China. Last night a downpour began and continued through this afternoon. Kunming doesn't have a good drainage system and it caused a flash flood - especially in the little plaza of the International Business School which is out the front door of our building. While university classes were cancelled this morning, it was my last day of teaching kindergarten and all the parents were coming to watch, so I had to forage through the city's flood in my flip flops.

It was difficult saying goodbye to the children today. Besides Chinese food, the thing I will miss most about this place is the beautiful kindergarten children that I have taught this year. Here are some pictures of the last day. As you can see, Chinese learn the peace sign picture pose at an early age.
