Official China Trip Reflection

I enjoyed visiting China over break

It was smoggy, but that’s okay

I saw the Great Wall and I found out

It’s not as tall as I thought

But it wasn’t disappointing because

I was still enjoying it, though

It required a lot of hiking.

I was always interested in the Forbidden City

I was told China was pretty

I was correct.

I tried some new foods,

But not a whole lot

Yet it wasn’t quite as bad

As I’d thought

I got through,

Though it’s true

The experience wouldn’t have

Been so different by half

If I hadn’t had to try new foods.

We visited a school and got paired with a buddy

Her name was Amy

She was very friendly

The classes were in english, but the style was different

Now I’m a little more prepared for high school.

Bei Jing, Su Zhou, and Shang Hai

All had a different vibe

But they had different styles

Which made us all smile

I’m so glad I visited China.

China Trip

We started with a 15 hour plane trip. Delightful. We arrived in Shang Hai first, and we went to our hotel. After that, we went to dinner. We were going to walk around the city, but we were too tired, so we went back to our hotel early. We visited the french concession and the Shang Hai Bund. Soon, we were off to Su Zhou. We visited a school and spent the day with our Chinese buddies. Elijah broke his foot. Then we took a plane to Bei Jing. We saw the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, and Tian An Men Square. We went to a Peking Duck place (not my favorite), and we went to a busy shopping street. Then we took the plane home.
