Sunday, June 29 - Alisa, Donna, Zach, Kelly, and Zhaleh decided to
go on a sort of blind adventure by taking some of the other buses that
they don't usually go on - just to see where they end up. |
 |
"The first bus we took was 425, which we took to a site full of
small stores and a strip mall." |
 |
"We decided to stop at
a place called "Party Work", where we purchased some cookies
and drinks." |
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
The next bus we took was 695, which we took to a park we saw from
the inside the bus. |
 |
"As you can see we got our exercise." |

Melody went with some lab mates to the war museum
and to the Marco Polo bridge (part of the Summer Palace). |

Incident" occurred, marking the beginning of a full scale war
between China and Japan. |

There are between 482 and 496 lions and they're all different.
Most are from the ming of the qing dynasty, although some are from
the yuan dynasty, or even the kin dynasty. |
