Today was our second day working with the students at Shandong University. We arrived early in the morning and immediately exchanged gifts. The students gave all of us t-shirts with their school mascot on them, they're really great. We worked on our projects for a few hours and then toured the museum. There are artifacts in their campus museum that go back 6000 years and feature pottery found in the local region. They also have an exhibit of clothing, paintings, and calligraphy. There are really some spectacular works of art. We took a calligraphy class after that and I practiced my characters with ink and a brush. It was a rough start but I think I could get the hang of it. We returned to our projects and then dinner and ended the day with a quick game of basketball that I think totaled a whopping 2-2. Goodtimes!
