Taiwan… the Home Country
01.01.2007
For new years we headed to Taiwan for a little celebration, rest and family. It was JiYoung’s first time and it’s been over 5 years for me so needless to say we were a little lost – but having fun every second!! There was a lot of walking and in so many ways, the city is the same as it was 10 years ago and it other ways, it’s a city under transformation – and construction. We hit many of the local spots and walked as many alleys as we could find. For the news years holiday itself, we hit the wall and ending up crashing (old couple) but 500,000 of our other friends were there to witness the new year celebration at the world’s tallest building – Taipei 101.

The other main reason for our visit was to remember and pay respect to the Chow Family elders. Both my grandmother and grandfather have now passed and rest in the Taipei area. It was the 3rd anniversary for grandmother and my aunts and us gathered for a small family ceremony. For my grandfather, it’s been almost 15 years, so we made the mountain trek on a rainy day to pay our say hello and pay our respects. Both my grandparents were so unique and different from each other but I know they both would have LOVED JiYoung very much. We miss you. We love you.
