I am up really early this morning to take a friend to the airport. My friend the coach of the four Chinese girls on tour with me is going back to Beijing today. She is very sick and already has had one operation and needs further care where people speak her language. It is a sad day and I am going to drive her and the girls to the airport so they can say goodbye and see her leave. This is going to be a hard day for the girls and probably for me also because the girls are going to be quite unhappy. Hopefully they will take the night off and spend some time together and get their crying done so they can concentrate on the show for the next 5 days. If you have good thoughts or prayers for Coach Zhang they would be much appreciated.
That is about it except to say that I got quite sun burned at the beach the other day. I applied sunscreen at the start of the day and once on select portions later but should have done multiple applications of the sunscreen in order to keep from getting this Pink. I was just having too much fun, the price I have paid. Hopefully most of it will turn into a tan but for now I’m using the spary on Aloe to keep the pain of people saying hi or hugging me hello down.

Solarcaine man. K got severely burned in Michigan at her Dad’s (while M had multiple multiple applications of spray-on lotion), and solarcaine is what got us through it.
