New Arrivals!

Ni hao! Another week has come and gone filled with basketball (1 win, 1 loss), school and partying all which have taken a tole on my health. Slight sleep deprivation and some injuries (mostly from the basketball ;D) are the orders for the weekend. On Saturday evening my dad and two of my sisters (Annina and Martina) arrived in Kaohsiung. In the evening, after they had settled, we all went out to eat at the China Trust Hotel Hong Kong style restaurant.

On Sunday we all went (including Andreas) out for a long walk around Kaohsiung filled with shopping and sight seeing. The shopping was done by the girls, the moaning was done by the men. It's very funny to watch all the locals point, stare and gabble about us in chinese as e all passed them by (There are not many blonde girls in Kaohsiung i can tell you). The day went smoothly and we only got lost about 7 times but we found our way, Annina also managed to leave her handbag with everything in it in hte taxi but we got it back thanks to some handy work by our frined Mrs. Fortuna. In the evening we headed back to the same China Trust Hotel restaurant for round two. Eating at restaurants is incredibly entertaining as we always seem to have about 12 waiters watching our every move and thoroughly enjoying the show as we eat about 12 times more than an average family :D, This was pointed out to us as we ordered food for an army but we still finished everything.

Tomorrow they are off to Green Island as i had back to school, but later in the week we have some activities planned. That's nice because it's good to see some familiar faces :)

Perhaps the secret of why the chinese ar smaller than you got its explanation due to eating habits...
"Kiva" to see photos so soon. My brother: You look a little bit "day after", although you are a day ahead.
Can imagine that "Hair" gets a new meaning for A & M. Eager to hear how Mrs. Fortuna worked!
We are tired of and fed up with assembling our new cupboard/shelf in our country house: Finnished it, but it occured that two pieces are the wrong way, although every piece found its place, so we have to tear most of it apart and rebuild it next weekend. Had to leave, because it was getting dark and the elks are on the move. Auntie & Co
