School Field Trip to Miaoli and Nanliao
Yesterday was quite the event. We went to a number of different places, starting the day in a beautiful garden in Miaoli County and ending it at a restaurant in Nanliao. There must have been something like 50 people on the trip, including the Chairman and his wife. The Chairman owns the school I work for, the hospital in my city, and a whole lot of real estate. Basically he's loaded. So we all ate and enjoyed ourselves on his dime. Tea at our first stop, the garden was great; lunch was kind of lackluster (although the scenery was amazing); and dinner was a literal feast. I'd say there were 8 or 9 foreign teachers. Which means the majority of the field trippers were Taiwanese. It was nice to talk and meet some Kindergarten teachers and others I had never met. Anyway, enough talking. Picture time!

Sounds like a interesting weekend = meeting new folks, eating new food, and seeing new places all on someone else's dime. Is the second picture a cemetary? Oh, Nana got the library folks to pull up the blog for her - she spent about 40 minutes reading through it. Liked it alot - except a comment to me about the black car incident. :) Like mother, like daughter.
sounds as if you are beginning to make more Taiwanese friends. That would seem to me to be very positive. I imagine they can help you avoid places you really don't need to be. Still haven't seen you write out your Chinese name???????Enjoying the pics.
