Chen Family Reunion

We  drove to Chang Hwa today for the annual New Year's lunch with Steve's Dad's uncle's (his dad's younger brother) family. His uncle has six children and they usually all come back and live in their  parents' big four story house on the second day of Chinese New Year.

We lunched at a vegetarian restaurant (the family is I-Guan- Dao) and then visited their home for a short visit. The food was delicious and Taiwanese banquet style (ban do). Steve's grandfather had five sisters and one brother so it was interesting to meet all the family that I never knew I had. They were all kind and hospitable. We promised to join them for the tomb sweeping activity at the end of March.

Our little jalopy made it all the way there and back!
