John and Mei’s posterous

English classes very soon and then home again, very cold (-21c) and
snow expected. Had lots of visitors yesterday including Jessie and her
boyfriend for dinner, Mei cooked curried chicken, very nice in this
cold weather.

Well, it is nice to meet you and see you are interested in things  China. I was originally in the New Zealand Navy and spent many years in Singapore, Hong Kong an every other place in Asia so I have always had a soft spot fro this area, and I guess for the people. I am now married to a Chinese lady and seemed to have fitted in to the way of life very well. I am very happy here and the friendliness of the people is quite amazing. I am in a smallish city in the North East not too far from North Korea and it does not see many foreigners. I have been to both Beijing and Shanghai and there are foreign people everywhere and I found I am happier back in my small town. I am sure you will love it here and also your children. Yes the children have a midday sleep and all the bunks are pulled out and they sleep for a couple of hours, two to a bed. They do eat meals there as well and go home in the afternoon. I have great fun on Monday mornings because I go to the school early and meet and greet the parents and also quite a lot of grandparents and they are just so happy to hear their little ones so a couple of words to a foreigner in English. Anyway , enough of my rambling and hope t hear from you again sometime.
