Our Life in Taiwan

Here are some pictures from the last 2 months:<br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF9WmzAEklzBkneoLd6dZgaY05eqtE2k0t-U_MdO4EXrggnOEa_GQ87mIul3O7dqTQsidq9Q5f8feXw5UyEn7sLJ8534R13tBdqp9SxYHhC2nRl9wplSlF_-GA1r5_Tr8mmraW/s1600-h/soap1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF9WmzAEklzBkneoLd6dZgaY05eqtE2k0t-U_MdO4EXrggnOEa_GQ87mIul3O7dqTQsidq9Q5f8feXw5UyEn7sLJ8534R13tBdqp9SxYHhC2nRl9wplSlF_-GA1r5_Tr8mmraW/s320/soap1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5081864427445719794" border="0" /></a>Anting has found a new hobby that she really loves--soap making. This particular soap is made<br />through a marbling process. Every bar has a different and surprising pattern.<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1434/670090111_48d417c883_b.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1434/670090111_48d417c883_b.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>This toy is the first thing that ever scared Ryan, and boy did it ever scare him. He was calmly having a nice bath when it was introduced to him. He screamed, had such a scared look on his face, and nearly jumped right out of the tub. It might have been the noise it made after pulling the string. He continued to hate it for several weeks, but now has gotten used to it.<br /></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1174/670093721_890504667b_b.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 496px; height: 372px;" src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1174/670093721_890504667b_b.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>May 10, 2005<br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1002/670102477_06c822cb54_b.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 498px; height: 373px;" src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1002/670102477_06c822cb54_b.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>In May Ryan was able to start sucking his toes.

<div style="text-align: justify;">The Day before Mother's day everything was set. We had a nice restaurant to go to, we knew where it was, and we knew who was going. Then, on Mother's day, it all changed. Ted, the favourite son, did not want to go all the way into Taipei to celebrate his mother's day. So, like on every other day besides mother's day, his mom had to accommodate his wishes. Since Mother's day is celebrated here, most of the restaurants were booked, but <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Anting's</span> mom was able to make a reservation at a Thai restaurant she remembered going to a few months ago.<br /><br />We all piled into two cars heading in the direction of where <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Anting's</span> mom thought the Thai restaurant was. She forgot, however, to bring along any information about the proposed restaurant. She also forgot the name of the restaurant. After driving around for three quarters of an hour hoping divine intervention might allow <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Anting's</span> mom to find the restaurant, we decided it might be best to call directory assistance. Of course directory assistance works much better when one has a name, or an address, or even a phone number.<br /><br />Here was the original conversation with directory assistance in the morning:<br /><br />Mom: Can I get the number of a Thai restaurant?<br /><br />411: What's the name?<br />Mom: I don't know, but I think its on <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Zhuang</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Jin</span> Road?<br />411: I'm sorry, there's no Thai restaurants on that road. Do you know the name?<br />Mom: I think its Golden something.<br />411: Is it Golden Coast?<br />Mom: Yeah, that's it.<br />411: Please hold for the number.<br /><br />As we were driving around <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Anting's</span> mom again called directory assistance:<br /><br />Mom: Can I get the number of the Thai restaurant on <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">Zhuang</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">Jin</span> Road?<br />411: There is no Thai restaurant on <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Zhuang</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">Jin</span> Road<br />Mom: But I called there this morning and the other lady gave me a number. Can I get that number?<br /><br />After some more time on the phone explaining that directory assistance gets more than two calls a day, we finally got the number of the restaurant we thought we had a reservation for. Although we were now almost an hour late, we called and got the address. Upon arrival, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">Anting's</span> mom realized that this was not the restaurant she went to those months ago. Plus, it was definitely not a Thai restaurant.<br /><br />Plan B was to call <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">Anting's</span> dad who was the one other person who went to the Thai restaurant, but he was flying back to China that day. Fortunately, he was in the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">Hong</span> Kong airport, had his phone on, and remembered the restaurant.<br /><br />Now with address in hand, or at least rudimentary directions on how to get there, we were able to find the fabled Thai restaurant with little difficulty. But, we were told we'd have to wait an hour and a half for a table. Even though we were all frazzled and hungry, we decided to wait it out.<br /><br />Luckily we waited as the food was very good, probably the best Thai food I've had in Taiwan. In addition, it was a very nice place for a photo shoot with all the moms and the newest son:<br /></div><br /><br /><center> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://blip.tv/scripts/pokkariPlayer.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://blip.tv/syndication/write_player?skin=js&posts_id=256225&amp;source=3&autoplay=false&amp;amp;file_type=flv&player_width=640&amp;player_height=480"></script><div id="blip_movie_content_256225"><a href="http://blip.tv/file/get/Coreybow-MothersDaySlideshow861.flv" onclick="play_blip_movie_256225(); return false;"><img src="http://blip.tv/file/get/Coreybow-MothersDaySlideshow861.flv.jpg" title="Click To Play" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://blip.tv/file/get/Coreybow-MothersDaySlideshow861.flv" onclick="play_blip_movie_256225(); return false;">Click To Play</a></div><script type="text/javascript"> play_blip_movie_256225();</script> </center>
