Goodbye to our English students/Chinese friends

Tonight the kids and I said goodbye to our Chinese (English student) friends.  Two of them have applied and been accepted to study for a Masters degree in England.  The third will graduate this week and return to her home town seeking employment.   We walked to a local Chinese ice cream shop for dessert.

Then came back to our apartment and played a game of Scrabble.

They were very interested in this game, and did quite well.  It is sad to say farewell, but we know they are headed out to seek new opportunities.  We will miss them very much.
