Hey all:
I'm visiting San Diego for a short family vacation. Went sailing today - sure beats the ice and snow in my hometown!
One thing on my visit list, which I accomplished today, was meeting Dennis Southwood, a contributing forum member. At my request, he suggested a SUPERB dimsum restaurant, and over excellent food we chatted about Chinese culture and music, language learning, and of course gossiped a great deal about the forum. My two teenage kids did nothing to embarass me, and they apparently impressed Dennis.
Dennis also showed me a very nice erhu he has acquired, and it sounds terrific. Nice bowing technique, and coming from a guzheng player at that, I must say.
Now I'm looking forward to my next trip to China. Maybe we can have a big sit-down front-feet-in-the-trough with our Asian members.
