Yes, that is sort of how teaching in another country, another system is feeling at the moment, the same but different. Today I had the other class for the second time, a second year group, smaller that Tuesday's and, let's just say, a little bit shy...
But fortunately, drawing on several years, nay, decades of experience, I'm beginning to draw out some responses and engagement. But that's not the point of today's post. No, it is more about 'one of those accidental photographic moments'...
It is just the fruit phone today because this evening we had our official welcome dinner with other faculty members, the four newbies put through those awkward self-introduction moments...again.
Anyway, first pic, I looked out the window and there is a car park below. And I've noticed that some days it stays empty, some days it is filled with lines of semi-trailers and then some days...
So the first pic:

| There was movement at the station |
And then this one...coincidentally and totally unplanned, at *exactly* two hours later...
 |
| Things were heating up? |
And so what happened at the end of the shift?
 |
| Perhaps not... |
Look closely, the car park attendants...See, just when you think every day will be the say, it turns out to be just a little bit different.
