Happy 50th

The team has moved onto Keelung, the third largest busiest port in the world. I must say that the 5 of us have really grown very close and feel like life long friends. We are there for each other and have each other backs. After the great farewell party last night with probably the best drinker I have ever met (did I mention she is 72), she is kind of the favourite mother in law everyone ever had but can drink scotch, wine and beer like a tornado. However the day started with a trip to the Formosa Plastic Group museum where they honour the founder and his mother. He started out very poor but went on to be one of the richest men in the country but always gave back to the community. We them moved to a new development called the TPark where they are building a new development that will specialize in mobile phone R & D technology only. The building are all being built green with green roofs, living walls and rain water collections systems. Very cool stuff, our host Vivian was an excellent host.
Today, Good Friday we move to Keelung and did a presentation at a Rotary club then relaxed at a members famous coffee and bake shop, Jackie's. Then this evening we went to a Rotary clus 50th anniversary party. There were clubs represented form 5 countries and we did our best to represent Canada. I;m beat and heading to bed.
Cheers
