In the South

Hey Guys!
I hope that everyone is safe and sound, and ready for Gustav. I decided that I would continue to update my blog even if you have no electricity to check it!!!!

We made it to Xiamen today. We have had a fun day catching up with old friends. I am headed to bed because I am still having trouble with jet lag, so I want to get a good night's sleep. We are going to be seeing lots of sights tomorrow so I wil be sure to take pictures. Putting pictures o my blog may have to wait until I get home b/c I can't find a wireless internet connection that doesn't need a password. I am bummed! I have already taken 355 pictures!!!! I took tons of pictures of the clouds from the airplane. I even saw another airplane flying in the opposite direction, so I took a picture of that too!!

Oh, here is a word that I want you to figure out using one of your strategies (BESIDES USING A DICTIONARY!) You can use context clues, look for smaller words, or look for a prefix or a suffix.

After two hours, the airplane began its descent into the Xiamen airport.

Chinese Word for the Day- kong tiao (kong-like "king kong", tiao- like "tea-ow" (rhymes with cow). This word means air conditioner...and boy do we need it because it is hot in Xiamen!!!!

Love and miss everyone,
Ms. Moss
