The Details

12 Sunday, March 12, 2-6 p.m.: A Visit to Xia Sha

Hello, Friends!

Well, we are still not ready to start the weeknight activities again; my schedule is still uncertain.

But I am happy to announce that we ARE ready to do something on weekends. We will not be meeting every weekend, but probably every other weekend.

Temple at Xia ShaSo this Sunday, March 12, we will have our first activity in the Year of the Dog. It will be a walk AND a temple visit AND dinner! And it's FREE! (Except for the cost of dinner.)

We will meet at Che Gong Miao Metro Station, at the top of Exit D. (Note: There are two sets of stairs at Exit D; this will be the one straight ahead, not the one to the left) at 2 p.m. on Sunday. We will walk from there to Xia Sha Village, where we will visit the village square. There is a temple, an ancestral hall, many unusual statues, an old tree, and a statue dedicated to some of Shenzhen's pioneers. From there we will walk to Shang Sha Village, where there is another small temple dedicated to Tian Hou, and another ancestral hall. Finally, we will walk to Papa John's Pizza in Tian An Cyber Park for dinner. We will finish between 5:00 and 6:00 p.m.

Dinner at Papa John's will be a shared expense; one very large pizza is around 100 RMB. It's the best pizza in Shenzhen!

After dinner we will walk back to Che Gong Miao Station.

There will be NO LAUGHING BUDDHA FEE for this event.

We hope you can all make it! We look forward to seeing all our old friends.

Peace,
James

,朋友们!

嗯,我们仍未准备好开始每周晚上的活动;我的日程表还没敲定。

但我很高兴宣布我们准备在周末搞些活动。我们不会每个周末都聚会,但也许会两周一次。

因此这个周日,三月12,我们将进行狗年的第一次活动。它会是一次漫步和庙宇参观以及聚餐!并且它是免费的!(除餐费自负外)The Laughing Buddha at Xia Sha

我们将在车公庙地铁站碰头,在D出口的上面。(注意:D出口有两组楼梯,应该是往上直行的那组,而不是左边的那组)于周日下午2点钟。我们将从那儿步行到下沙村,在那里我们会参观村广场。那有一个庙宇,一个祭祖祠堂,许多不寻常的雕塑,一棵老树,以及一尊献给某些深圳先驱者的塑像。从那里我又将步行到上沙村,在此又有一个供奉天后的小庙宇,以及另一个祭祖祠堂。最后,我们将走到天安数码城里的Papa John's比萨店用餐。我们的活动大约在下午5点到6点之间结束。

Papa John's的就餐费用将由大家分摊;一个非常大的比萨饼大概100元人民币。这是深圳最好的比萨饼!

饭后我们将步行回车公司庙地铁站。

这次活动不收取LAUGHING BUDDHA组织费

希望你们都能参加!我们期待着见到所有的老朋友。

问安,
James

24 Friday, March 24, 8-? p.m.: Party at Old Jazz Bar; FREE!

First, on Friday night, March 24, we will have a party at Old Jazz Bar at 8 p.m.

Old Jazz Bar is next to Gang Xia Metro Station, Exit A. It is on the 24th floor of the Hai Ying Building. The bar phone (for directions) is (0755) 8291-3079. There is a map here.

Part of the reason for this party is just to get together and have FUN. Also, our good friend Jon Mayfield is leaving us to take a new job in Beijing, and we will say goodbye to him that night. Come speak Chinese with Jon--he's amazing! We will miss him. 

There will be no Laughing Buddha fee for this event; just buy your own drinks and snacks from the bar's menu.

3月24号,本周五晚上晚八点,我们将在老爵士酒吧聚会。

老爵士酒吧靠近岗厦地铁站,A出口。在海鹰大厦的24层。可以打酒吧电话(0755)8291-3079询问地址。或点击下面的地址,查看地图.

此次聚会的部分原因是让大家聚在一块,开心地玩。另一部分原因是给我们的好朋友Jon Mayfield饯行。他将去北京开始一份新的工作。来跟Jon说中文吧,他很厉害的。我们会想念他的。

此次活动不需要交任何费用,但得自己负责在酒吧里购买的酒水和零食。

25 Saturday, March 25, 4-5:30 p.m.: English Corner in O.C.T.; FREE!

We are not planning any Laughing Buddha salons in the near future. But I have agreed to help my friends Wang Li Min and Kiki Yang with their English corner in Overseas Chinese Town. So come this Saturday, March 25th, at 4 p.m., and join us for conversation.

I will lead a small discussion about Spring time and the Spring Equinox. There is NO CHARGE for this English corner!

We will meet outdoors in OCT's Ecology Square. We are at the far north end of the park, in front of the 2+1 bookstore; see the map here.

近期我们不打算举办任何弥勒佛英语沙龙。但是我已经答应帮助我的朋友王利民,Kiki Yang在华侨城举办英语角。欢迎大家3月25日,周六下午4点,加入我们英语角的讨论。

我将引导大家讨论关于春天和春分的话题。这个英语角是完全免费的。

英语角位于华侨城生态广场的北端,沃尔玛后边,2+1书店对面的一个小山丘上,可以参考图

好了,就这些!希望在本周末的两次活动,或其中任何一个中跟你们见面。
