On Going Preparations

On July 8th, we attended the Chinese Consulate to pick up our passports and almost did not get them because of a Political Demonstration at the Consulate. We were able to get our passports stamped with a fancy looking visa endorsement.

The time is flying by and it seems harder to focus on what needs to be done. The Stampede has come and gone. We drove to Vancouver July 9 and came back on July 12. We were entertained very well and had excellent weather for eating fish, fish, fish, (so fresh and soooo good) - outside even. We loved the hiking we were able to do, beautiful scenery everywhere.

We want to add a picture of our family (even though we are missing Breanna - Born May 10/09). The picture was taken in Canmore last September when we were all together for a Run in Banff.



Here is a photo of Breanna. She is 2 months old in the picture.




We have each been given tentative assignments for teaching at this point. They have let us know that we will each be on a different campus teaching 3 oral english and 3 written english classes per week. Exciting. We expect to meet with the teachers we are replacing next week to get first hand information (the Salmons).
