Formula 1 Racing at the China Grand Prix


Jeff, Jin , and Mr. Zhu had a great time at the Chinese Grand Prix on October 19th. Formula 1 is very popular in Asia and Europe. After a very interesting cross-cultural experience involving Mr. Zhu's attempts to get us into the race, we decided to buy tickets at the gate. Our seats were near the track's hair pin turn, s we got to see the cars slow down from top speed and then accelerate out of the turn. The noise was incredible. Lew Hamilton from the McLaren-Mercedes team won the race. Jin liked the Ferrari team the best, so he bought a Ferrari hat as a souvenir. We might check out the motorcycle GP in May at the same track.

Hi Lui!
We celebrated Harvest Moon here on Saturday. (Good date for everyone- not because of the full moon!) It was a beautiful day and Jack Sr made a huge leaf pile and the kids had fun running down the hill and jumping in it! The usual gang was here except Reid, who was travelling, and in addition we had the VanMeter's and the Larsons from down the street. We missed you guys a lot! Jack made his bulgogi and potstickers and Lisa made a noodle dish. No one wanted to make rice cakes so we had apple pie and pumpkin pie for desert! The kids painted pumpkins and ran around! Thanks for all the great news on the blog!
Julie, Jack and Jack lee
Jack Lee promises to write Jin soon- he is busy trying to become famous- has two talent agency interviews tomorrow- wish him luck!

I think Mark might change his mind about visiting China,
