Taiwan 10.07 Highlights

• Staying up late with the girls (ie: 2am!) discussing everything under the sun.
• Visiting the Cultural Center, again and discovering that it just gets better.
• Ritz crackers with brown sugar candy in between.
• Overcast skies for 3 days and much cooler weather. So cool in fact that we all donned jeans and some of the girls are even wearing jackets.
• Meeting Timothy's parents and watching them fall in love with his big grin.
• Having the Georke Gang here for 10 days from the States. Yeah for clean windows and all the help they have been!
• Introducing the family to Elijah and finding that they think he's as cute as I do.
• Finding my camera again after 24 hours of not knowing where it was.
• Watching the watershow at night down by the lake.
• Finding that I really do miss Ted, Bev, and Anna who are gone for a few days. What am I going to do when they are gone for over a week?
• Discovering that being sick abroad is twice as un-fun as it is at home.
• Building deeper and much more meaningful relationships with people on so many more levels than I thought could/would happen.
• Riding in a taxi twice within a week! 
• David comes in less than a month. There is so much here that I am excited for him to see.
• Finding out that Ava's parents are coming soon, and Kwen has his courtdate soon too!
• Meeting a family of giant snails and finding that I'm not the only one who thinks snails are kind of cute.
• While sitting on a wall, the four of us girls counted that we had our picture taken at least a dozen times within a half-hour by people who were pretending to be watching the other scenery. Hurrah for being the circus side-show!
• Loving the babies more and more . . . 
• Thrilled that I only have a month left, yet sad for the very same reason.
