Children and Teachers in Jinan, China 2006


This little guy introduced himself as 'Richard.' I told him my father had been named Richard too. He was born in Guangzhou, China but left for the United States as a baby in 1919 and never returned. The boy gave me a little cat made of playdough. He made me think a lot about my father who passed away in 2004.


Children enjoying the soothing and peaceful water at one of Jinan's amazing natural spring parks.


Jinan elementary school children performing Chinese Opera.


Jinan kindergarten teachers performing modern Chinese dances for our Shandong schools delegation from the United States. Now why couldn't I have had kindergarten teachers like them while I was growing up... :-) Posted by Picasa
