Arno sees me off

Because my Beijing journey is prior to Arno’s leaving SJTU, we had supper together in a new restaurant in front of the Tuoxie Gate. Fortunately, it’s 42% off today. We had five heated dishes and a cool one. Sean accompanied us during dinner. Arno will have his intership in a German coorporation called Borche till late September. I gave him a Chinese stamp carved myself as present. It is the first seal work of mine. He is so lucky! :grin:
