Tuesday is tomb sweeping holiday ('qing ming'). We only get Tuesday off, which is wierd because I had a bunch of meetings on Monday. Anyway China and Taiwan get Mon-Tues which makes more sense for a long weekend.
This past weekend we had perfect weather. On Friday I spent a gorgeous day in Taipei, taking a 30 mins break for a coffee in private in a patio in Beitou. 24C and sunny. On Saturday woke up VERY early for erg trials on a rowing machine then dragon boat practice in Tai Tam Tuk. Thereafter a group of us headed to Lamma Island for the 'family hike' (about an hour past a few nice beaches, some hilly sections) then seafood before the ferry home. It was a great day!
On the flip side its snowing again in Toronto... heading there this Wednesday and to the U.S. for some meetings.
Can't wait for a day off tomorrow in town. Stephen is off to Phuket. so jealous!
See everyone soon!
