taiwan, here we come

things we’re looking forward to:
- unconditional love from family members (one of us will get it, anyways)
- meeting our new cousin/niece, Ashley
- the swimming pool at my grandmother’s apartment complex (see above)
- learning a lot more chinese
- bao bing (shaved ice), bbq corn, yummy tropical fruit, peanut mochi, amazingly fresh and affordable sashimi
- the night markets

things we will miss:
- gentle breezes, low humidity, sunshine that doesn’t scald, and cool evenings
- Tuesday night dinners with Emmett et famille
- our friends and neighbors
-  the farmers’ markets
