ELON On MOTHER'S DAY

ELON is a beautiful seaport town known for its awesome hotsprings and markets. We had a lovely experience with the Young family, my benefactors. The hotsprings were piped right into the hotel. A special room with built in bath was rented by the hour and was one of my happiest hours in Taiwan!

Demi comes to Taiwan

Demi, my best friend, visited me in Taiwan. While she was there we shopped, shopped and shopped and traveled a bit around Taiwan. We did so many things, including spending a day at Chunju's elementary school in Taibei. Top to bottom:
Demi is helping the student's complete their artwork. Demi is an Art Teacher in the US. Demi is sending letters home. That's a mailbox! Demi is drinking coffee to celebrate her Anniversary.
