Ni hao, everyone! We’ve arrived safely and just returned from a wonderful welcome banquet before honoring the graduates of the High School affiliated with Fudan University, our host school. Charlie and Emma sang beautifully, but the dance floor was a bit too small for Abby to grace the stage. We’ll sleep in tomorrow morning and then learn our way around before attending art and calligraphy classes in the afternoon.
