pigs Easter 
How to spend Easter in China? Well, not with egg hunt. The Easter Bunny will be here rather than plastered that allows him to hide something. What to do? Exactly! To go with one of the organized trips by the students. Or ride. The are always happy when one or two long runs along the nose confused hikes. This time it went to a mountain near the new campus. The outward journey was due kilometers deep potholes (perceived depth!) A challenge to the spine. And then we went to the mountain and the first complete guide . Lose We then sat down and sometimes wait until we were sure where to
NOT be long. On receipt of this "nature reserve" big one of the main attractions was touted - the pig races! Consequently, we chose the path from the top down with questions like "Where are the little pigs?" and "when running the pigs?" (Xiao zhu zai nar? Zhu Shenmen shi-hou pao?). Once at the arena were the lazy pig beasts like a horde battle game in their stable and absolutely dog. But we are not all the way up and run-off, to see just kip the piglets! So: first to bring life to the place with two fed apples. Only run they would not still. After wanted some time of hanging out then went off in a nearby poor little acrobats show whose main attraction was a drunk who must participate.
first I thought this was a lame joke as we know it from the circus. When the Schluckspecht then clapped a tube over his head and right arm, waved, and looked so stupid that impressed me, I fell into a frenetic applause and cheering loudly, "Hen hao!" (Very good! Fantastic!). Just as suddenly broke out a scuffle between him and about 10 others who wanted to carry him on a bus, I realized that the show was not. Distracted by this spectacle came the presentation of acrobats something in the background. And when someone loudly
"The pigs race!" called wars finally over with juggling - the whole band began as the audience expected to dive in pigs towards the arena. And we in the middle. Once at the track was going on the show soon and a bunch of Thai dwarf pigs whizzed past the cheering crowd. Three times they circled the obstacle course with rising number before last but she jumped from a height into a pool of water. After that, the mess over and Easter saved. Without a way to increase this impressive performance, then we left the scene with the comforting feeling, something unusual seen have to. Always better than boring grind in rabbits with eggs. Unless they jump from 3 meters height in a pool!
Now it's been a while, but I wanted to write again a short post about the departure from M & J. It was really a fun time with them and apparently they also have their holiday very much. to honor you, we have (well, actually it was Shu Lu and Dong Liang), a "farewell" cooked and then they will fly to Shanghai to continue from there back to Germany. 
again was definitely very funny, the things that we had actually gotten used to see through the eyes of others. And to act as a cultural shock brake. In any case, it was great to present our views to everyday life here a familiar face and show the things I like about China so much. And the students were apparently from St. Mark's also very inspired! "Your friend is very beautiful!" Since Julia had to watch it! Now think determines that all Germans have blue eyes! Otherwise, I'm going to Beijing tomorrow to attend the 30th birthday there from Andreas. The rock is also determined and I would like to tell how something looks like in China. I recently visiting the NOFX concert already tried his specially purchased karaoke machine. So all töfte here and I hope all of you too!
