Post-Pilgrimage

... wikipedia) harbor. Afterward, we made our way to the Tainan brand of FoGuangShan, listened to a brief talk, ate a mega-delicious lunch buffet-style, and sat around waiting for those who went to change money. After lunch we returned to the main shrine, which is comparable to the American variety of Christian mega-churches complete wiht LED backlighting, made prostrations, and climbed aboard the buses.<br><br>Next stop is Tainan was quite a ways away, took more than an hour to get ...

... move on to the next life than live in a building that hot! Bad mood automatically, but gladly moved on to our next stop- after a group picture. On to the children's home (orphanage? still not sure). Pretty much looked around floor-to-floor... nothing out of the ordinary. looked like they did a lot of arts and painting, cool place for a kid. <br><br>From there, we broke into personal projects groups and didn't get very far before Yifa ...

... see wikipedia). I tried it- yuck. And no buzz as promised- I suppose you need to use it a few more times. At least I accomplished that goal. We pressed on with no particular goal in mind, but then decided to visit Love River, which was lovely and breezy. To pursue the breeze, we decided to go to the 'beach,' but it was an hour's walk away and still blazing hot. So, we split into two cabls, each with one chinese speaker. I ...

Foot Massage and Liuhe Smorgasbord

Today's highlights are a traditional Chinese Foot Massage and the Liuhe night market for dinner. If you have not ever had a Chinese foot massage, go get one! This is a great experience. We arrive at the massage parlor &#8211; no happy endings at this place &#8211; get your minds out of the gutter. It is a nice place. Very clean and open with chairs lining both sides. One side is to soak your feet and the other is to get the ...

Time for the Traditional Market - BAM!

The fun stuff just keeps happening. We start of the morning playing some ma-jongg on the Nintendo Wii &#8211; sort of a Japanese/Chinese version of rummy with tiles. That is a lot of fun and I win 4 times in a row. Then we head off to a traditional market. Ah yes &#8211; this is old school and something I think everyone should experience. It takes you back to how things used to be done.<br><br>We start off in the sundries market. This is freaking ...

Vitamin A - Aktionstage

Im Laufe des Jahres habe ich zu verschiedenen Anlaessen immer wieder kleine spezial Aktionen mit den Kindern gemacht. Das erste mal war am 21. September, dem Weltfriedenstag. Dazu haben wir eine grosse Plakatwand mit dem Paece-Symbol und Friedenstauben gebastelt, sowie mit den Kids auf ihrem Niveau ueber das Thema gesprochen. Dieses Datum ist zuvaelligerweise mit einer grossen Erdbebenkatastrophe in Taiwan identisch, so dass ich oft gehoert habe ...

First night in Tainan

... in Tainan, but that actually meant that they had forks to eat eastern style food. I had "salad bar" which was a combination of fruit, vegetables, fish, breads, and desserts many of which looked very strange to me, but most of which were surprisingly tasty. This was also our first experience with an "eastern style" bathrooms. More about that later. We finally returned to our hotel about 1:00 am to get some much needed sleep.

(M)ein Tag in Tainan - Part I "der Vormittag"

... Hoppe-Hoppe-Reiter singe. Wenn ich um 12 zum Lunch nach oben ins Buero gehe, ist es zwar ein bisschen, wie ein zweites Mal aufzuwachen, weil dann der spannende Teil des Tages erst so richtig los geht, aber die Kids sind immer ein wenig traurig und wenn ich am naechsten Morgen wiederkomme rufen sie meinen Namen und winken oder umarmen mich (meine Obergschenkel halt) oder haengen sich an mich vor mir liegt ein weiterer Vomittag mit den "XiaoPengyou" (kleinen Freunden).
