Long time no see

Wow, it's already a month since my last entry... oops. :) Didn't have so much time to write, because I either spend my free time visiting some cities in Taiwan or writing the BTP report. But good news, at least for me: the report is finally finished and I feel like a free person again!!!

So, what have I been up to during the last few weeks?
First, I've been to Kaoshiung, the city where my parents used to live some 30 years ago.
There was a big temple opening festival one evening, everybody had tables outside to eat dinner together and afterwards there was a huge parade.
The next picture shows Monika, her Mum and me.





The next day we went to Zoying lake (no idea if that's the right spelling), a place I still remember from my childhood visits to Taiwan. There're big tunnels in the shape of tiger and dragon and you can walk through them and there's a zigzag bridge across some part of the lake.




Afterwards we also visited the Confucius Temple in Kaoshiung, it's a very beautiful place but actually nobody really uses the facilities, it's just for showing and maybe celebrating Confucius birthday once a year.
