For the last few days it has been raining (I mean pouring) constantly over the whole island. Our Chinese friends tell us that it usually does this right before "Dragon Boat Festival" which among other things ushers in summer for us here in Taiwan. Dragon boat day is based on the lunar calendar so it falls on different days depending on the year. This year it is really late and is on June 19. All the rain makes for some long days as the kids are home and we are trying to pack. Hopefully, the sun will break through soon.
On a different subject, the picture below is of our spiritual language teacher -- Mrs. Lu. She is a wonderful teacher and we will miss her so much. She has taught us many things in Chinese -- including how to say our testimonies, how to explain sin, the meaning behind John 3:16, and how to disciple new believers. She also has helped our everyday language and consistenly and constantly helps us with our tones. She is a demanding teacher but an excellent one. She will be missed.
