At dusk May 12, following a burst of bright laughter, the root-searching campers of the Philippine Federation of Philipino -Cantonese ASS¡¯N., INC. spent a happy and meaningful day in Nan Hai District ¨C ¡°the South China Sea¡± then came back satisfied to the campsite ¨Cthe Overseas Chinese Vocational Technical School of Guangdong Province. The first destination the campers visited was Huang Feihong Lion Dance And Martial Arts Center situated in Luzhou Village at the foot of Xiqiao Mountain, Nanhai District, the birthplace of Huang Feihong-the master of lion dance, there they enjoyed the traditionally characteristic shows of Chinese Kungfu and Awakening Lion flying between high stakes, walking on steel wires, catching greens which were hung high above, tucking dive and jumping. And then, they went to Xiqiao Mountain-one of the four famous mountains in Guangdong Province,  experiencing the beautiful natural scenery of motherland and the stylistic local conditions and customs. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking far into the distance, the limitless scene was before their eyes on such  a bright sunny day,  this group of overseas teenagers had a close-contact with the beautiful rivers and mountains of the motherland heartily. That evening after coming back from Nanhai,

the campers had a pleasant free talk in a warm and friendly atmosphere with the local students for about one an a half in the classroom.

Both sides had to say good night to each other though they were  reluctant to part  because  they knew  better that both the local students and overseas teenagers were all Chinese descendents  with black eyes, dark hair and yellow skin. They shared so much in common but didn¡¯t have enough time to express.
