Another day, another celebration

A great day here again with a morning visit to the Presidential Hall. We were taken to the VIP area for a photo but the President was a little busy. They did conduct a tour with a complete history of the political system and the palace. After an awesome lunch with our new friends we all went off to do some vocational visits. I was lucky to get to tour a church school and a very large private home that recently had geothermal systems put in. Electricity is very expensive here so it is very important to use energy wise equipment. Shannon was very happy to visit a hospital that specialize in post natal care for the mother and child. Alex got to visit the local YMCA. Ashley had a two hour meeting with a banker while Laura did an enviromental visit. We all met afterward at a 9th anniversary party for the Tucheng Sanyin Rotary club of New Taipei city. Several speeches and a few glasses of wine later they had up on stage singing, what a lovely rendition of Old McDonald had a farm it was. The meal was again 10 courses deep and if you kept eating, they kept bring more. Amazing food if you are the adventurous type. Presented the district governor with his gift of a spirit catcher from our district governor John Gordon. Now some badly needed rest for the team.
