Confusious day

Some of Jeff's students took us to see the Confusious Temple and Mansion. It was pretty neat! The Temple was the best...the achritecture is awesome and there are actually TREES!! :) Lots of trees...really old trees...even a tree planted by Confusious himself! (I am pictured below standing with the Confusious tree) There were many memorable moments on this trip: first Clayton and I were late because we thought Jeff was eating lunch with us but he wasn't, then we waited for an hour at the temple before going in because there was some mysterious problem with the free tickets the students had, then clayton almost died because he walked down a slippery part of the stairs only to then see the sign at the top warning people not to walk there, we finally found post cards to mail home, we looked at tons of empty rooms at the mansion (a little boring) but found the really pretty garden at the end, and then couldn't decide if we should take a taxi back to go by horse drawn carriage thingy (we wanted to take a taxi but our student really wanted us to go by horse...we went by taxi)
