Outings with Sarah

Since Sarah has been here we have not done much.  We have waited till the Christmas holidays for going out.


We went to Louhu

On the Metro to Louhu.

 



Its Christmas all over.




We went to the park and to the night food street.











 Sarah loves fried squid




Our favourite street food.

We also took Sarah to Coco Park.  This is a mall that is a favourite to the foreigners.  I must say that there is more of a Christmas spirit here in Shenzhen that in Rizhao.  The mall has decorations and nearly every store inside Coco Park also have decorations.  That feel of Christmas is all around.




We also visited Dongmen Pedestrian Street again, but this time we walked and walked and saw more of the area than before.

















Zuma is everywhere






Sarah is enjoying being back in China.  And we are enjoying having her with us.  Now we wait for Kerry to join us as well.

Next post will be after Christmas.  Wishing all the readers a wonderful Christmas.

Keep reading and I will keep posting.


Christmas Dinner with GOS

Time flies so quickly and I can't believe that the first semester has already finished.  It really feels like we have only just moved to Shenzhen.  It has been very busy at school and there is not just the planning but a lot of admin work as well.  I think being so busy, the days just pass by without you even knowing it.

As with every year, schools give their staff a Christmas dinner and so did GOS.  They booked the Hilton for a buffet dinner.




 




 


Dessert

 It was a lovely time with lovely people.  It went on for about 2 and a half hours.

Santa arrived to hand out the secret santa gifts.


It was a great evening.  A quick evening.  It started 6:30 for 7pm and I left by taxi at about 9:30pm.

Keep reading and I will keep on writing.
