We are still discovering new restaurants, and new places to visit. This pasta and pizza place is owned by an Aussie, and the food is very good, and very reasonable. It is packed wall to wall every time we go.
Frankie hitting balls at the driving range, across the road from our house.....
Frankie and her friends singing with a street musician on the weekends, a popular hangout for young people of Hualien.
Last weekend, there was a band and the singer was from Malaysia, speaks Cantonese. He asked me to jam with them, but I don't have my keyboard here in Taiwan.......
Our tennis team played in a tournament last week, and we won two matches and lost one, coming third place overall. We celebrated with dinner at an outdoor patio restaurant, with plenty of Heineken on draught......great evening with temperature around 30C.
Great news! Frankie finished her last exam yesterday, and guess what? She is #5 among her class of 43 students, top 5!!! This is beyond my expectation, and she did it all by herself. I'm a proud papa obviously, but what really matters, is the fact that she feels comfortable and has many friends now. She seldom mentions Canada anymore.....
We celebrated by taking her to an upscale steak house, and the food was fantastic. It costed us a fortune in Hualien standard: $50US, but it was worth every penny.
