Halloween party pics

Alright, as promised, here are some highlights from the Halloween party...

Guess this looks suspicious...




















The whole crew...












Some of the girls...














Grandpa Liu and Chen Tao - Allow me to go on about Grandpa Liu for a bit: He's retired and hangs out at the fruit stand by our house. He and Katie chat it up for hours because he's from the north and speaks putonghua (standard mandarin) and not a local dialect. We call him Grandpa Liu because he's awesome and has THE best laugh in all of China, maybe the world. He always waves hello at us and laughs at our crazy foreign antics. I try out my broken Chinese on him, and he encourages me though I'm sure it's bu hao ting (not good sound). He's just the cutest, sweetest old man ever. And to top it off, he came to our halloween party! He stayed the whole time and chatted with students. He even wore a mask. Oh how we love him!














Steve knows what the ladies like...
