...signs of communication...

The other evening, just as we were headed to the catch the 608 bus, Ben spotted some more people communicating in Sign Language!  We really enjoyed visiting with these three folks.  They identify as Hard of Hearing.  They work at the Xi’an Academy of Fine Arts Special Education College of Arts.  I believe the 2 girls we met last weekend are associated with the same college. http://www.xafa.edu.cn/new-index.jsp

In the background, you can see a Starbucks.
