Majestic Tao Temple
... The view was great, even from the bathrooms! We started on the right and moved around the grounds....because that is what is done.

Busy Spring

I want to keep my work temporary so that I am still able to leave next year to go international again. I am just not ready to settle down. So as of now I don't know what next year will bring.

Miss you all!

But it was worth it! Love ya mom and thanks for coming to see me!
Well that is all for now...Until next time, love ya and miss ya!

The locals bring in the new year with a lot of food and even more fireworks and firecrackers! I've never seen so many fireworks in my entire life ...
Festivus on the ROC!
... Day, my hosts hosted the biggest Christmas dinner I've ever experienced - I think there were at least 40 guests sitting down for roast beast (aka Taiwanese turkey) with all the trimmings - it was just like the scene of the Whos in Whoville sitting down for their Christmas dinner :) The festivities wound down at 2:30 AM after much food, drink, Scrabble, guitar strumming, children playing, fun and fellowship.
The massive dinner ...
