Today was the last day this week that the university will be open for classes. Chuck taught but I didn't teach at the university today. About half of his classes were there. The holiday coming up is Qingming Festival or Tomb-Sweeping Day. This is a time when Chinese remember family and friends who are no longer with us. Burning ‘spirit money’ for the dead is something that will happen and cleaning out tombs if you have one in your family. Other than that people can and will enjoy the out of doors.
Today after school, both Chuck on the campus and Nate and I here in the house, we took a ride on our scooters to Dashang Market where we had lunch and then went grocery shopping. We always buy more than we have on our shopping list and today was no exception. Lots of cookies made their way into our shopping basket as did fermented milk (yogurt drink). When we got outside and out scooters were loaded Chuck and I took a minute to get pictures of us on our scooters. Tonight Chuck and Nate took me to Yo Pizza and Abnormal Frie, both near Zhengzhou University and not far from our house. These are two places that the guys found while I was doing consultant work east of the city.
