Hearing Voices

Every morning - the chatter of old people speaking Chinese.

But, where would it be coming from and why so very early?

Our building houses mostly young teachers who are from Spain, Japan, South America, Great Britain, America, Germany, and they don't speak Chinese that well. And, the building juts up against a small mountain - there are no other buildings around. It certainly wasn't the workmen as the voices were also women's voices.

Why do I always hear these voices early each morning?!??!?!? It was a puzzle?!?!?!?

Puzzle finally solved after living here for about two months.

The Chinese that I am hearing, climb the path right behind our building each day to get water from the mountain spring or just to do their early morning exercise. They laugh, chatter, clap, speak loudly - it seems they are totally enjoying these early morning forays up the little hill.

Ah, they can teach me a thing or two about being healthy!
