Post Christmas and New Year

Already 2011 and in a few short weeks little Maya will be turning three!!!! We have had a great coupe of weeks since the last post.
Pics from after Christmas...lots of playing.



Maya loves painting, drawing and anything creative....like her dad:)



More swinging at the park.



I usually have a late class on a Friday of older students. The boss decided to cancel and instead take the kids (those who wanted) and staff to Sun Moon Lake for New Year's eve. We stayed at the youth center which has log cabins...beautiful place. We could catch a glimpse of the fireworks from the place( a big thing this year as Taiwan turned 100 years old). The others walked down to the lake to see the whole thing up close ...our two little ones were way too tired and passed out at 11:00. A beautiful way to start the year waking up with pine trees around and lovely crisp air.

Messing about in the room before everyone else got there.....it was 8 degrees outside.



In the morning Dylan climbed in with daddy to watch some telly.

Just love this one ..

Exploring in the morning.

Umm....no whales about:))





This was our room. Each cabin divided into three rooms.

On Saturday we took a boat ride..this is Dylan doing his "Ahoy"

Maya insisted on sitting in the middle. The grannies behind her spent most of the "sightseeing trip" chatting to and looking at her:)

Some general pics from around the lake...









Back on the boat after a stop to get some mushroom flavoured tea eggs.

Up the tree at the peacock garden.

Messing about back in Taichung.
