Bicycle Rickshaws
Kyle and I at the beginning of our tour of the hutongs of Beijing in a bicycle rickshaw. Hutongs are narrow alleys of traditional courtyard residences that are the traditional housing unit of Beijing.
These two sister schools, Peddie School of Hightstown, New Jersey and EFZ of Shanghai, China, are embarking upon their first ever student exchange program in March of 2008. All members and friends of these two communities are invited to follow along and even respond online as these students work their way through this exciting process.
