River Trip

This is a river that feeds from the waterfalls from behind our house. The ward had a camp out so we went today for the BBQ! The water was so clear and a pretty aquablue. The water was only cold for the first few minutes! We went swimming and jumped off the rocks and skipped rocks. We tried to go up to the waterfalls but we had a heavy rainstorm last night so the road was closed. Maybe next week!

Valentine's Day in Taiwan

This is at our favorite fried rice place. We walk in and the ask Caleb if its the usual and we say yes. So I guess we eat there more than we should if after 2 weeks they know our order. This s one of the owners and her daughter, they gave me the rose balloon for the Chinese Valentines Day!

Life in Taiwan


So its been a little difficult trying to adjust to life here, but I think we have done okay. This is Caleb with one of the locals, they're more friendly than they look! This is in a store downtown.

This is my life


So little did I know that one should always go to the bathroom before leaving and then wait until you return home. This is the WOMAN'S public restroom. You squat over the porcelain hole in the ground. Not an easy or comfortable task!

This is the aftermath of the typhoon! We still went out, against everyone's advisement!
