Finally, we were so lucky to go to the library’s home, Dan Ream’s home for the native family visit. Dan’s home is typically a middle class home. Located in the forest on a hill, the house was not big but very comfortable. Near the house, there are several swimming pools and a natural swallow lake. The drive path was narrow because residents don’t want someone outside the neighborhood to come in. It is an area for all these residents. They want peace, not traffic.
The family was very nice. They not only provide us with typical American food which was very delicious, but chat with us a lot about American life and American culture. They were very curious about China. The first picture they can think of China was the foundation date of the new China. Of course we talked a lot with them about the recent development of China and Shanghai. I like the decorations inside the house which made the house looked very comfortable. I cannot help but feel grateful to their kindness. I would be very please to host them in China should they came to China in the future.
