Guess who made it on the cover of a local expat magazine...
And yes, Deborah. That is your tennis sweatshirt.
The funny thing about the photo is the other girl is also American. She was adopted from China, but does not speak any Chinese, and is finding it difficult to go shopping, etc., because the clerks expect her to understand.
Lower left hand corner. "The Bailey Sisters" fiddle away in their American
casual costumes.
#7. Blue jersey (TIS Eagles): Ellie Bailey.
Who would have thought that she'd love basketball,
and would be a starter on the girls Varsity team?
I've now sat in gyms to watch my kids play basketball on three different continents!
Again, who would have ever thought it!
And Ryan, there were times when her action was identical
to yours. I had serious deja vu! She is quick.
First game against REGO International School (a British one), goes in the win
column. Half-time score, 33-6. Then the 2nd string played most of the 2nd half,
with the final score something like 40-28.
The driver took me to the game and he got to watch as well.
But he cheered for every basket made--either team.
Maybe not really his sport.
Go Ellie, go Ellie!! And do you & Alice feel famous now?
