The Best Laid Plans

I had plans for summer.  Friends were going to visit. We were going to Beijing, Xi'An and Shanghai.
They fell through.
Plans have a way of doing that. That's why I had a plan B.
Same plan, different friends.
That fell through too.

Trouble was I had no plan C and much as I like my apartment here in Baiyin the option of spending eight weeks in it didn't appeal.

So I've signed up to teach a summer course. No summer holiday for me.

That's the bad news. The good news is that it's in Yangshou and it's four hours a day with weekends off with food and accomodation provided. Just like summer school back in England.

Well. At least I have a plan now.
