Normal Food!!


Hey guys!
Again I forgot to send an email on Sunday. I remembered while I was in sacrament that I needed to do that but by the time we got back from church I had forgotten. Maybe next week haha
Anyway this week has been pretty good! Again we still haven't taught a full class yet. We have had a few 20 minute classes to practice but that is it. There are about 40 kids in each class so it gets crazy! On top of all the noise those  kids make the whole school is inside and the classrooms have windows open so you can hear all of the other kids and how loud they are.it gets hard to hear sometimes. But its fun! The kids are so stinking cute! And they are all very smart. The tricky part is keeping all of them entertained.
We also found a really yummy restaurant which is so exciting for me. We have limited places to eat so the fact that we found one that we like so much is good! By the way...a lot of the food here smells and tastes like dirt a lot of times.  When Jamie and I smell it or taste it we just say it tastes like China and we know exactly what it is.
At church on Sunday we had a potluck and the members made a lot of American food. I can't tell you how happy I was to be eating a home made meal again. I have missed that.
Ok it sounds like I'm not liking the food so much. I actually really do but my tongue misses dinner at home.
Anyway! I don't know if I have explained how church works out here. The nationals can't be in the same ward as us so we go to a tiny branch in a neighboring city with other foreigners. Most of the branch is Americans who ate here for work. So it was fun for us to see white people again.
So to really celebrate our anniversary we went to the zoo inshanghai on Monday. That place is huge! We got there about 10 in the morning and e didn't leave until 4:45. The only animal we went and saw twice was the panda. It took us the entire day to see all of the animals there. We were so exhausted when we got home. But it was totally worth it!
Anyway that is about it for this week. Hope you guys have a good one!
