Dahlonega Trip with Chinese Friends


Last Saturday (August 2) our family took 19 Chinese students to our old stomping
grounds of Dahlonega, Ga. The students are here working on their Masters at Kennesaw
State University for four semesters. We went to Amicalola
Falls State Park, Dahlonega for
gold panning and a mine tour, shopping on the square in Dahlonega and then ending with
a visit to the outlet mall before returning them to their apartments. Some other
American friends joined the group to help drive and build friendships. It was a FANTASTIC day.
Our kids were great troupers and we love these new friends. Phil and I are very
happy and tired today.
We aren't as young as we were before when we would do these full day trips:)
There are going to be many more opportunities with students this year that we are looking forward to and we are praying for helpers to join with us and our team
to have the same joy of building international friendships!
