I checked my email this morning and found an email from yesterday telling us (BHSFIC faculty) that a picture of all the grade 12 students would be taken this afternoon, and the faculty was invited. I texted Josie at school, and she said several of the faculty were attending. This sorta shifts my afternoon plans (no TT practice).

I spent some of the morning working on our moving plans. Two companies submitted quotes. I had to get some adjustments so I would be looking at quotes for equivalent volume. I made it to the swimming pool. I’m still struggling with fatigue I wasn’t experiencing before Lhasa. I’m blaming it on the altitude in Tibet, not all the “yak” I ate while I was there.

After lunch I began making plans on how I was going to get to the BHSF main campus for the pictures, opting for the subway. I arrived fifteen minutes early, meeting several of the faculty at the gate. The picture was scheduled for 4:15. The students milled around for while, but eventually got into their groups and began loading the risers. This group was all the grade 12 students from the main campus and the international campus, combined as well as faculty. Probably around 550 (guessing) faculty and students were involved.

After the main shot, we cleared off and smaller groups began to take pictures. Eventually they took a picture of the International Campus grade 12’s (around 65) and faculty.   It was after 5:00, so I joined several of the faculty for dinner at a nearby Mexican restaurant. It was nice meal and a fun group to sit and chat with.

Lots of excited 12th graders

I took the train home afterwards, arriving around 7:45. Judy and I spent time talking about movers, summer travel plans, and our trip back to DFW for Courtney’s graduation! Lots of details to iron out!
