Tsingtao's 'til Home

We're getting close now!  Sue created a pyramid of Tsingtao beer cans until we go home, and as you can see, we have 10 days left.  This has generally been our beer of choice here - it's the most popular brand, and in my opinion, the best tasting.

While I was at school giving a final test today, Sophie and Jack were having a lazy pajama morning.

Eventually, Sophie went off to school, and Peter and Sue went out to have a British tea service with our friend Stefania.  One thing Peter loves about Hangzhou is the greenery, and it has only gotten greener since all of the rain we've had lately - this is Hangzhou's rainy season.  Peter stood in front of a wall of ivy attached to a brick building, which he though was pretty cool.

The building was covered with ivy!

Peter and Sue went to tea at the Rose House with Stefania, and besides tea, they had quite a dessert spread.

Peter and Stefania hung out in the rose house with the tea, the decorative British surroundings and the desserts.  Yum!
