Public Security Bureau, Part 2

We had to go to the Public Security Bureau again today, escorted by Athena and Soon Ying. Soon Ying’s job is to get all the foreign experts’ paperwork through with the proper authorities, so that these teacher’s (like Dave) are properly documented. It is amazing what he is able to do, and with a lot of good humor. The visit lacked all the drama of last week—we mostly just sat in a room while Soon Ying showed the police ladies all of our paperwork and we had our photographs taken yet again. I’m posting, though, to show Dave’s pictures of us and Athena and Soon Ying.

On the way back, we saw this man selling asian pears. We bought some and ate them up as quickly as they could. Absolutely terrific fruit!
