Our night adventures into the local night street markets were as fun as we had expected. Lots of good food that I was fond of when I was a kid, and some of them I haven’t heard of. Mom and Dad took us to their favor stinky tofu place, and both Jeannie & I agreed [...]

After a long day, hot pot was consumed by all. They sell thinly sliced frozen meat specifically just for hot pots at Costco here in Taiwan. And being the meat lover that he is, my dad bought packs of beef, pork, and lamb, Costco size! We attempted to finish them all but obviously failed. Lorelai [...]

Lorelai & Emma (my brother Ryan’s daughter who’s 4 month older than Lorelai) have been looking at and talking to each other on Skype for a while every week. It was nice for them to finally meet in person. They had tons of fun together and are now BFFs (although Lorelai does take advantage of [...]

Taiwan Trip, Part 1
January 7th, 2009 · No Comments
This was a big trip for me since I haven’t been back to Taiwan since I left 17 years ago (Dec. 1991)! I have now spent more than half of my life in countries other than Taiwan, but still, it feels like it’s the original home. I am going to do the trip recaps in [...]

Greetings From Taiwan!
December 25th, 2008 · 2 Comments
Happy holidays everyone! Traveling with Lorelai was/is extremely tiring, especially with the 13 hour flight. It took Lorelai 4 to 5 days to adjust for the jet-lag, and even with adjustments she’s still extra cranky. We are very tired, but Taiwan is fun with lots of good food! Picture updates later when we get [...]

Freeway Complex Fire

We spent most of our weekend glued to the TV watching live coverage of the fire. The fire spread so fast this time that it’s just scary, and we were just too scared to go anywhere. Check out this fire map over the weekend, what a mess! Yesterday we went out and drove around to [...]

Bailout Dollar at Work
October 7th, 2008 · No Comments
I don’t understand how this crap ever got passed when more than 90% of the people opposed it. I suppose the congress is representing someone other than the people who elected them. Check out how the bailout money is being spent: The St. Regis Resort in Monarch Beach, California, was the site of a week-long [...]
