I finally got a chance to chill and get some rest after bootcamp. here is a sample of the two weeks:

This was taken about 1/2 an hour up the mountain. Great little (and only) swimming spot.

one of our many lunches out on the terrace.

A stick sparring match between a master fencer from switzerland and a USAnian sword master

Who said Russians can handle baijiu?

the little village where everyone stocked up on beer and cheap stuff... really great people.

more creek pictures... we took our activity outside and scared the wildlife with reeditions of classic songs and poems. e... e...e...

mahjong afternoon... beware the sharks that smile and say they never played the game before...

August and Geri's favorite studying spot:

The dreaded end of the course baijiu toast

Believe me, the t-shirt would never be seen!

I had planned for the shirts to be blue but somehow, between the time that the files left my computer and the time the t-shirts came back, they were orange....
I'm gonna try for blue again this winter.
The orange turned out pretty good in real life but i can't wear it too much being a proud 'Nole... Orange and blue are the colors for our arch-rivals, the Florida Gators.
