Today I will let the photos below do the majority of the talking for the blog. Why? Honestly, I'm old - and tired... :-) But also because it's very hard to put into words how grateful I am to our friends at Hubei University for the incredible day they provided for our students. In the near future we will embark upon a River Cruise and the tempo of this ensemble will s l o w d o w n just a bit...during that time, I'll be asking others what today meant to them and will post their comments when I am able to do so. You'll want to return to the blog as I know you'll read some pretty wonderful things. Thanks for your patience.
