It's COLD!!

This week has brought very cold temperatures to Taiwan. Normally, we do not have too many cold days here in Taichung but this week has been really cold. The temperature right now is 10 degrees Celsius (around 50 degrees Fahrenheit) but it feels much colder with the wind, the humidity, and the fact that we have no heat. We are hoping that this cold spell leaves soon!!

Wade's Day



Today, Jan. 9, is Wade's 14th birthday. He had a good day. We went to Chili's for lunch and the tradition here at the Taiwan's Chili's is to stand on a chair and the waiters and waitresses sing "Happy Birthday" to you as you hold a cheese cake.

This weekend, Wade's basketball team competed in a tourney in Taipei. They played well and finished tied for 3rd place with a 2-1 record. Wade played hard even though he was not feeling his best.

Happy Birthday Wade!!
