Yesterday I finished my paper! I really have a lot to do and when a free day comes around like this I have to take advantage of it. In the evening I headed over for young-adult fellowship at BICF. Tom and Grace also came along as they wanted to experience and see what it was all about. After fellowship I went out for pizza. The food on the menu was pretty pricey so I just stuck to a glass of orange juice. There were a fare number of us so we had to split up at different tables. I was sitting with American brothers and sisters. Over the course of the evening it was interesting to listen to some of their various political standpoints. I can't help it - a few comments were priceless. At one point, one of the guys was trying to defend American might and health. He began his argument with the phrase, "Besides the economy..." I am sorry but I couldn't help but laugh. An interesting evening nonetheless.
Today Mike, Grace, Tom and I left the apartment at around 8am. We took the 801 bus up to the Summer Palace where we met Carmen and Karma The Summer Palace is a tourist attraction and has probably been my favorite site to date. It was the cottage like residents for emperors. It is surrounded by a lake, waterways, mountains and various sorts of vegetation. Of all the displays I especially liked the last section. It had a Venice-like feel. Around five or so we took the bus back home and had dinner at a little local noodle shop. In the evening I completed my monthly budget and reports for CBM. Another day
