Hi friends,
I just got back from Taiwan last night. What a wonderful time to see all the family and old friends!! Anyways, sorry about all the wait time. Since my house back home have a slow connection, I really couldn't upload any pix. Now, I am going to briefly talk about my trip with pix that I took.
This time, I brought my college roommate with me to show him the place I grew up at. Also, he is looking to teach English in Taiwan so we thought this trip might help him to get to know this country a bit better.

After couple days, we went to a off-shore island named Poung-hu for a couple days. It's like a Taiwanese Hawaii ...

After poung-hu, we went on Alishan the next day. It's one of the higest mountains in Taiwan where people go up there and enjoy the sun riase view, sea of cloud, tree of god, etc .... We took the famous train up there which was bulit by Japanese when they ruled Taiwan years ago.
