China - Day 100
Day 100 came with a blast of wind that ripped the trees out of the pavement just outside the compound. Torrential rain and heavy gusts of wind all day - it was an (English- style) April showers cold day - hopefully the weather system has cleared out and tomorrow (a school day) will bring sunny spells
