"I am Batman!"

We lost a CD that has a bunch of wedding pictures taken by our Boston photographers. Thinking it might've been accidentally taken when our computer was being worked on, we called "M" our computer man to see if he could track down the Tietung broadband guy and see if he has it. "M" eventually came and called the broadband guy. Neither of them had it. Later, "M" found it under a stack we thought we had looked through. We were thrilled and relieved! "I am Batman!" Sam chuckled gleefully. We laughed, embarrassed by the whole thing and thanked him for coming. I like this guy "M".

We went to a restaurant near the main campus. We met a couple of waitresses who were quite friendly. They wanted to know all about where we were from and what we were doing in China. Neither of them spoke any English, but we got by with the little Chinese we knew. They asked us for English names. We called them "Faye" and "Lynn", the closest English counterparts of their names we could think of. They reminded me that it's International Women's Day today. I didn't know....thanks for the reminder! Happy Int'l Women's Day to all!
