So today was our last full day in Hemu. I woke up had Breakfast. Then we went to the local school and had a soccer game with the local kids. It was really fun to watch because I couldn't play. Li Dao acted as the referee. I began to feel a little bad because a lot of IES people took the game really seriously.

After that Elise and I went to get lunch. We picked a place and put in out order. Then the other people from our group yesterday came in. Elise was nice and offered to let them sit with us because there was no room at any of the other tables. Well the employs were really slow, and the trio that had joined us spent all the time even as they were eating talking about how the good the food was complaining about the speed of service.

After lunch I came back to the hotel and chilled for a while. Then I went for a walk by myself. It was pretty uneventful until a guy started talking to me in Kazak or Russian (i can't really tell the difference) All I could say was I don't understand in Chinese. Oh well. After that I ran across the IES hiking group. They fed me some of the melon that Li Dao had bought them. I really like all the different melons that I can't get in the states.

So we ate dinner, but Jake came to the door unable to slow down his breathing. The teachers hoped that it would pass if they waited long enough again. But by the end of dinner he was still not any better so they decided the Jake had to leave.
