Dear Tammy,

It seems like ages ago that we were in Dalian．Now, on Easter break, I have a moment to repeat on our wonderful trip--aided by photos that document how much fun we had--and how much food we ate.

I was proud for Draw Richard to see the strong ties that have been established between our institutions--and what a bright, talented group of Chinese faculty we have had in Meredith．She was impressed as well she should be.

I want to thank you for your lovely fruit bowl and flowers, your gracious attention and comprehensive campus tour, the lovely atmosphere at your flat, and the beautiful place mat and chopstick set．We've decided to take the latter to England, to our flat in Bath, where we regularly eat Chinese take-out and have some reminders of our friends in Dalian.

Until we meet again, please take care of yourself．Good luck in your move to a new flat and good luck On your doctoral work．

All the best，

Betty
