This is my last night in Hunagshi City as tomorrow I will return to the capital city of Hubie Province - Wuhan, where I will fly to Shanghai to reunite with our U.S. delegation. Before leaving Huangshi No. 7 High School, I was humbled to receive some very nice parting gifts. Pictured is a senior art student (Wu Lei) who gave me a painting that I was admiring a couple days ago. What an amazing surprize! And then, Mr. Ye presented to me a Chinese coat. This jacket design dates back to the Tang Dynasty (618 - 907 A.D.). Mr. Ye told me that this is the same coat that was given to President George W. Bush when he visited China. It is beautiful and makes me feel truly honored. In all truthfullnes, during my entire stay in Huangshi City I have been treated like royalty.
