Journey to Kerrigan: Dinner @ a Chinese Family Establishment

Tonight we had a wonderful gathering at a mom and pop restaurant. The other family (Smiths) that was there to adopt, Trena , Holly , the Dunn's and their families as well as Ashley, Sara, and Christel all gathered for a fine celebration on the last night before we made our way to Taipei for our AIT appointment. It was the last time we would see some of them. Celebrate we did ! The middle of the tables spun like a lazy susan. They placed multiple dishes on it then you spun the table to get access to all the goods! Outstanding idea :) They brought out a spicy dish that had Keagan and I perspiring before we were done....probably took 30 minutes after we finished for my tongue to stop burning...ha. Lots of laughter and merriment. Now in Taiwan the beverages are very limited, what i mean to say is you cant just drink the tap water. If you ask for water it comes bottled or tea it comes in small child cup sizes. So if you eat a spicy Taiwanese dish you must simply wait as your tongue catches on fire :)

WONDERFUL NIGHT FULL OF WONDERFUL FELLOWSHIP!
