This weekend was wonderful despite moodiness. On Saturday we visited a friend at her mountain home for a delicious lunch of salad, bread, and fruit. She and another friend live in a log cabin community a drive out of Fengyuan. We spent the afternoon discussing British politics (She's from Devonshire) and a bit of American nonsense thrown in there. Saturday evening we laid low and I accidentally bought 300 dollar fish (10 US).

Sunday we actually got up early and were in Taichung for lunch. We went to a restaurant owned by a Chinese teacher at my school. Then we went to the Taichung Art Museum, which had mostly modern art that we didn't understand and didn't provoke many emotions other than being creeped out. There were a couple of galleries dedicated to traditional Chinese ink paintings which were beautiful and steal worthy.

After the museum we went to soccer practice (on the north side of Taichung). Low turnout, so 5 on 5. The humidity and heat was killer, causing fatigue lasting through now and predictable until tomorrow. After soccer we cleaned up at the field and went back into Taichung to go to the major bookstore with friend, Justin. No luck in finding a good Egypt guide (I already got Josh the Lonely Planet for our anniversary, but we were seeking a second opinion.) Then to Subway (weird) and home to call our Mommies!
