Snow in ningbo!

It finally snowed! All the Chinese people had been promising snow for days now, every time I went for food in our local cheap restaurant they said it would snow and it didn't and then, finally, it started snowing just after the new year! The first day I had no work and so went out to take pictures in the snow, getting seriously cold! The second day it snowed harder but I had class. I went into school and the first class most of the class turned up so I taught for twenty minutes before they all bounced out of the classroom excited as anything. After lunch it came time for my afternoon class and I had seen the students that morning, they asked if there was a class and I stressed that I would be there and had to be there, but only if no students came could I leave, luckily their English was good and so they got the hint, when I came to class only three out of 34 had turned up! I stayed and chatted for ten minutes and spoke some Chinese before ending the class fantastically early. Mainly because this class was a spillover, due to new year years and Christmas the other classes missed their lesson but this class had an extra one, and I didn't have anything to teach and they didn't want to study, so an early ending was best! After the lesson I went out again to take some more cool pictures in the snow! As I was leaving I got suckered into a playful snowball fight with most of the students who had skipped the lesson! Haha!
