Going to Ken-Ting

on the way to keng-Ting, we stop at the food stand and we were having the traditional food in south of Tainan. The first I tried this kind of food it was so good. I really wanted to eat more. This business area is really a good business. A lot of people where coming from all over to eat over there. Unfortunately, I do not know the address but I know it is located in front of 85 degree coffee shop. If I had an opportunity, I will go there another time, and I will get the address.

Arriving to keng - Ting (墾丁)

After having a great lunch, we arrived to Keng-Ting. First, we went to keng - Ting National Park. It is afree park, where you can see views, nature, trees, and all kinds of animals. Alan and Andrew and his sister played over there. They had a great time having fun over there.

Also, we saw emmigration of animals. In this year we saw white goose. There's a lot of white goose at the park. It was so fun for children to see how this kind of animals move from one place to another as season change.

We arrived too early to keng-Ting. We can check in at the hotel at 3:00 P.M. We want to kill the time, and children want to play more, so we decide to go for a Go cart ride.

Go Kart (小型賽車)

It is so hard to choose the cheapest Go Kart. There's a lot of Go Kart stations in Keng-Ting. All of the sites we went, there's a lot of people. We have to wait for a long time. We decide to go farther away and find fewer people.

After 15 minutes driving and comparing prices, we found this Go Kart site very close to our hotel. We decide to go and ride it. The owner asked us how may people want to ride? we said three adults and three children. No matter if you are adult or a child, the price is the same. They charge single or double Kart.

David's friends have two little children, so they buy two double kart. It is our turn, I want to buy a single kart for Alan but I do not know if Alan can ride it or not.

The owner said let's see Alan's hight. Alan grow to 140 meters now. He is big enough to be able to ride himself. Alan was so happy. I went to buy right away, two single kart. One for David and one for Alan. I do not want to go because I am driving my car everyday. There's no reason for me to ride it.

They settle the seat for Alan and Alan was ready to go. At the begining, Alan was riding very slow. He really enjoyed homself riding. He was so happy. I am very proud of my son that he could finally ride homself. Last time we went to keng-Ting, he was riding with his daddy. But now, he doesn't have to ride with anybody else, he can make it by himself.

The place of Go Kart is really big, here is the pcitrue were we went.

I was taking picture sof my baby, I am very proud of him. He really did a great job.

After Alan was riding for round 10th, he could control his kart and when saw me he just waved at me with a big smile.

Uni Resort (統一渡假村)

After playing 20 rounds at the go kart, it is the time for us to go to check in at our Uni - Resort hotel. It is very cheap hotel, we overnight over there costs NT$1,000. Compared to other places, this one is cheaper.

After we check-in, we put our stuffs into our room. We are going to prepare to go swimming. We heard typhoon is arriving tonight. We need to get into the water right away.



When we changed swimming suit or pants, we went outside, the climate changed dramatically. On our way to keng-Ting, the weather was very hot and humid. After we changed to our swimming suits, the climate changed.

I went to see my room, it is big and nice. I really like it. Today is Saturday, this hotel is almost full.

Alan and Andrew jumped into swimming pool. They played in the deepest water. They had a great time.

On the other hand, I want to get into slides. I was afraid. Alan showed me how to do it and the second time, I did it by myself. I did it many times. After that, I went swimming.

After swimming for a while, children want to get into boat. It is good for them to try the boat. They really had a great time. I also tried, but it was so hard to control directions. The winds blow us to a different direction.

Everybody enjoyed, everyone had a great time. It is time to eat now.

We are going to go back to our rooms and prepare for delicious meal. I bought many things to prepare. I will cook noodle soup. I hope everyone will like my food.

After dinner, we are planning to go to the night market in keng-Ting. This is a very famous street that has everything. They decide to buy food to eat. We bought some fried chicken, potatoes, ice cream and wine. We just had hot soup as dinner and the food we just bought, we will eat as midnight food. What a life!

Teacher's Card

Today I was ready to teach my first class, Junior One I. Students came very late. I was ready angry, I was going to punish students and they gave me a big surprise by saying happy teacher's day. I was so happy to receive their cards. They wrote nice things on the card.

Another special student whose English is not good enough but she is trying very hard to communicate with me in English. She also wrote nice things on her card also. It was a ready nice surprise.

Emergency Call

Today after recording for the oral test, I went back to my office and saw an emergency note on my table. I was reading the note, it was from my son's school. I was so nervous, I did not know what is happening. I called to Alan's teacher first, so she could tell me what was going on.

The nurse from school told me that Alan went to see her by saying he has a toothache. After hearing form her, I was a little calmer. I wasn't too nervous. I hang up the phone and I rushed to my son's school. I want to see my son, but his teacher told me that he went to pick up his lunch.

I asked his teacher if my son whether is OK or not. She said that he complained to him about toothache. I could not do anything until I got off from my work.

After looking and talking to Alan, I felt much better. Now, I can go back to my office and eat my lunch. It is a really emergency call. I was scared.

Typhoon

After the strong typhoon, another typhoon will come to Taiwan. Everyone is hopping that Typhoon HAGUPIT will come and we will have a vacation. However, the typhoon never came to Tainan. It just passed Taiwan. What a disappointment. I knew this never happened. Tainan is a good city with good weather for whole year.

Typhoon Sinlaku

This is my weekend, unfortunately, typhoon is coming. According to the news, this typhoon is the strongest typhoon in the history of Taiwan. Many people suppposed to work on Saturday, because of typhoon, a lot of shops were closed and no most of cities took the day off.

After this typhoon, a lot of people died and 5 bridged broke down. Typhoon Sinlaku Power and telephone services were also disrupted to nearly 100,000 households as trees were uprooted by the strong wind. Hundreds of domestic and international flights were cancelled, and traffic on highways was interrupted by landslides.

It is very dangerous. I saw many thing on TV with panic.

I Get Higher Score in Wii

I was playing Wii with Alan last time. It is my first time playing wii with my son and it is also my first time to get high points in wii. i got 501 points. Compares with Alan, he is more professional because he played more times than me. he should get higher points. He was a little disappointed.
