An American Family Living in China

Close-Up View. At The Great Wall, we joined other Chinese
tourists climbing over a wall to examine the ruins.

Overview
In early 2001, we applied to take part in a faculty exchange program between South Dakota State University and Yunnan Normal University in Kunming,
Yunnan Province, the People's Republic of China. In July 2001 we received an official invitation from China. We left on February 12, 2002 and will return July 3.
