This is my favorite day of the trip. I got to meet a wonderful local Chinese family in Chongqing. They took us to the supermarket and let us pick out the ingredients. They cooked us traditional Chinese food and we ate like a family. Then I went and met an inspiring Tibetan woman whose story is phenomenal. She taught us about her culture and how to make Tibetan jewelry that she designed herself. She is mentioned within the Smithsonian Museum and in articles around the world. We spent over two hours with her and it was not enough. I just wanted to keep learning from her. Then the students set up a BBQ for us to end the night!

We had a busy day! First, we went to class and learned about the Mongolian culture and language by a native of Mongolia. She was inspirational and lovely to meet. Then we handmade our own dumplings! We even cooked them! We are our hard work and it was delicious! Then we played baseball with the university team, friendly competition and intermingling our languages was super fun! Finally, we all went to opening day which is a day for the students families to come and visit. We all had a party!

We went to two museums. The first one we went to was the Chongqing Fine Arts Museum or the Three Gorges Museum. There were many beautiful artifacts. We learned about the Chinese People’s War of Resistance against Japan Aggression. This led to China involvement in World War II. Then we visited the Hu Guang Guild House. This was a building from ancient China that was preserved and restored for modern times. Here we learned about how goods were traded and how women were treated from then to now. When we got back to the university we went to a fashion that was incredibly put together by the students! It was so much fun! 我们去了第二个博物馆。第一个我们去了重庆美食馆还是三博物馆等。那个很多漂亮出土文物。我们学了关于中国人战争抵抗反对日本侵略行为。这个教学了我们关于中国包括在二次大战。我们参观湖广会馆。这个建筑从上古中国那个修复现代。我们学了关于怎么商品禁药和怎么女人嫁受屈从。等到我们去了后大学我们去了时装表演那个邪乎。太好了！

My first day of travel was long, but beautiful. The airplane ride was seventeen hours long. The airports were pretty in Beijing and Chongqing. The Chongqing University students met us at the entrance of the school to greet us. That is when I met my roommates who were so nice and helpful. They helped me carry my bags to the room, but since it was so late when we arrived we just talked for a moment before heading to bed. I felt bad because I was sick on the airplane and on the bus ride so I could not concentrate well. I apologized for my inconvenience. In the end, it was a great way to be welcomed to Chongqing University.

我第一日旅游久了，但是漂亮. 飞机起十七钟久. 机场漂亮北京和重庆。重庆大学学生会了我们大门大学迎接我们。那是等到我见面了我同屋谁是好和有助。他们帮了我抬包地方，但是它很晚等到我们来到我们说稍微以前去谁。我觉得了很不好因为我病了上飞机和公共汽车搜易我没有集中好。我道歉了我累赘。终于，它太好了还赢了重庆大学。

Today, we took a tour of Chongqing University. It is a beautiful place to see. There are a lot of trees, many hills, and a lot of sports facilities. My favorite part was when we got to sit outside at the old wooden tables and drink tea. We all talked, laughed, and took a picture. Then we decided to go shopping and we got souvenirs for our families. But, the last thing we did academically was go to an abacus class. A teacher taught us how to use an abacus. I bought one for my friend as a gift and I am going to teach her because it was so much fun!

今天，我们去了旅游重庆大学。它是漂亮地方看。那是很多绿树，很多丘陵，和很多休闲运动地方。我喜欢很多等到我们去了做面在老木质表和喝茶。我们说了，还笑了，和照片。那我们决定了去商店和我们买了纪念品我们家。但是，我们去了课算盘。老师教育了我们怎么以算盘。我买了一朋友礼物和我是去了教育了她因为它太好了。
