The Germans and my first ballroom dancing!

Well it started off as just another day.  I had popped into town between lessons and was walking back to school.  I felt that someone was looking at me, hat is not unusual being the only foreigner in town,   However this felt different.  I looked around and nearly missed them!  Two foreigners...Germans too!  We had a quick chat in English.  I can speak German quite well and treid to speak it but it came out as a mixture of German and Chinese...very strange!  As if the Germna space had been filled with Chinese!  I understood their Germna but could make no sensible German response!  So we talked in English.  I took the obligatory photo and swapped we chat addresses.

School visits

It was friday, I only had one lessoon, but the night before, I was told that we were going on a schol visit to a countryside school.  It sounded good.   I turned up early for school and let my class know that I ouwl not be there.  They seemd to understand.  I then went around the school in teh morning and chatted to teh students as I usually do.  At half past eight (ish) I got my text and went out and met the deputy head.  He led us over to his car.  I took the obligatory photograph! The deputy is the guy second from the left.  He loaded the car with water and off we went.  I was qute interested to see what the countrydie was like, and what a rural school was like.  I was expecting a kind of wooden hut with soil floor.  I was very wrong! The school gate  A quick look around the campus As you can probably see, this was no small school.  A huge site with tall three-floored buildings and numerous sports '...
