Huang An -- Sun, Jul 10, 2005
It was a long day -- biked until 10pm -- well after it was dark... but we made it.
Lu'an -- Sat, Jul 9, 2005
We took advantage of our early volunteer day and went to the "international automotive city" Lu'an. Not much on this day, but more to come later
Hefei -- Fri, Jul 8, 2005
Some brutual roads on our way to Hefei, but more great countryside. We went straight to a school for children with autism when we arrived. We were greeted with applause and then a wave of questions about how to "cure" autism. These parents look desparate and wanted any answer I could give them; sure an American knows the technique that will make a breakthrough for their child. Unfortunately I don't have the answer...
Quan Jiao -- Thu, Jul 7, 2005
Have you ever tried to take a road bike through the chinese country side. Well now I have... It was a long day with a lot of back tracking -- 110 kilometers to travel 65 kilometers towards Hefei; but we met some wonderful people along the road. More coming soon |

Nanjing -- Wed, Jul 6, 2005
Another incredible volunteer day. I had to make up a lesson plan for 10 autistic kids on the spot... an interesting adventure and a whole lot of fun. More to come soon.
