Weather Update

Yesterday was cold, rainy and overcast. Visibility seemed to be about 1/4 mile or less. Working on the 15th floor gives us the possibility of great views when the weather is clear. Not yesterday. We're expecting temperatures in the high 50's by Friday! Believe me we're looking forward to it. A great find at the supermarket was a video set of the first 10 years of Mr. Bean. Since it was cold and unpleasant outside last night we watched the first of 6 discs.

We do have a television but the only English channel consists of mostly documentaries about China and some news. We're learning a lot about China and find it interesting. Several of the American restaurants in our area have lending libraries of books in English. We'd rather be reading than watching television so this is good for us.

We're having a great time getting to know our fellow staff members. There's a lot of laughter and talking all through the day.
