Visit to Lincoln High School in Tacoma
The couple will visit Lincoln High School in the port city of Tacoma, Washington State. They will be welcomed by a special musical presentation in which dozens of students will sing What a Wonderful World in English and the Chinese song In the Field of Hopes, which is the signature song of Peng.
Except for formal talks between bilateral leaders, there are no hard and fast rules on occasions where first ladies can accompany the presidents.
Peng has attended many events with Xi on previous foreign visits. She was seated in the audience when Xi spoke at a university during their visit to Russia in 2013. She also visited a farm with her husband in Argentina last year.
