Another great day meeting new faces and seeing new places. Today in the classroom, we discussed fairy tales like Cinderella and other classic tales.  It was really cool to walk into Deb Alexander’s class and see all of the kids acting out Cinderella and to be in my mom’s class and see her going wild with fun and laughter. I could be with these kids all of my life and never get tired of their ongoing laughter and joy. 

We can all tell that they are hungry to talk with us and learn English, and it shows. After teaching, a group of us headed over to Confucius Temple for dinner and shopping.  I have named myself “the Bargain King.” If my mom is having trouble, she calls me over, and I take it from there.  I do think that I am the only man in America that can bargain and be good at it.  After our bargaining extravaganza, we stopped for dinner at a Burger King for a much-needed double Whopper. It was so good; it tasted like candy. It was the best thing that I have ever put in to my mouth.
