Internet Issues...

Hey everyone! I just wanted to let you all know that I'm in Beijing and I've been writing a lot so far, but I haven't been able to post it yet because we still don't have internet access in our dorms. Don't worry though, that should change soon. I'm able to get online briefly to check my email in our program's office at Beida, but it is very slow. This is mostly due to the fact that the fiber optic cables connecting China with the US were damaged during the Taiwan earthquake in December. It should get faster as soon as those are repaired. So far China has been great, and I can't wait to post my observations here so all of you can read about my trip. Keep checking!

P.S. I love all of the comments I have received so far, they're great!

Hi Grace,
Rick and I enjoyed the description of your flight. What an opportunity this trip is for you. I think Rick is jealous, he's always wanted to go to China. He said he's learning Chinese reading your Blog Site...have a wonderful time!
