Green Expo in Yilan

This was the second year of the Green Expo in Yilan. The theme this year was Return to Nature. Not too sure that the expo had much to do with being green...there was an exhibit on solar panels, but that was about it. It was lots of fun tho!

The place was overrun with field trippers. Cute kids in uniforms!

What? Just chillaxing

My parents renewed their vows!

Then honeymooned in Paris.

We played in a duck

then with them

Someone made Nai Nai pull him around in a cart

Apparently Ethan likes to sit on things

Tomato Tunnel!

The hand powered train cart was pretty fun.

I thought I was cranking the cart to go super fast...then realized my dad was behind me helping me push it. =P

Ended the day by feeding the goats.

Ethan must have learned a lot because the next day he insisted on being green...wearing it counts no?

Hualien

Bob joined us the last few days we stayed in Taiwan and we all took at trip to Hualien to visit Taroko National Park.  Can we say gorgeous?

Look at the lovebirds!  And this after almost 40 years of marriage!

The water was an amazing color.  The pictures does not do it justice.

My Dad's mad parking skills.  He parallel parked this car right on the very edge.

Daan Park, Taiwan University and Bridges.

More from Tawain.  Ethan loved every minute of Taiwan.  The food.  The parks.  The grandparent bonding time.   It was like his best vacation ever.

Cuddling with Yeh Yeh.

Daan Park was next to the hotel where we stayed.  It is one of the largest parks in Taipei:

I love how my parents are still love to goof off and take silly pictures.

We walked to Taiwan University after going to Daan Park.  My dad went to college here and is currently teaching part time there.

We are either giving kisses or slurping on his head.

Getting a refreshing drink of fresh coconut water.

Ethan LOVED Yeh Yeh's car.  Apparently the golf cart we drove around in HK didn't cut it.

More playground time:

Then we went to visit a suspension bridge in Taoyuan.

Ethan fell asleep in the car but he only pretended to sleep on the hike down to the bridge.  He would periodically lift his head to look at me then flopped by down whenever Yeh Yeh tried to see if he was awake.  Apparently he was just wanted a free lift.  I don't blame him...the hike was a bit intense.

The bridge was pretty freaky!
