Happy Boxing Day!


Back in UK, everyone is taking the day off, and probably recovering from the Christmas aftermath today. But for me, I'm in the office working as usual. Man, I miss these Christmas holidays! Christmas just isn't the same overseas. Especially in Taiwan. Definately lacking the feel of Christmas around the neighbourhood, but the retailers around here still use is as a commercial tool to get us spending. Curses! Nevertheless, we still have a Christmas tree and presents to unwrapped.

Today, Chien took the family (excluding me, since I'm working) to Taipei Zoo. Apparently Amelie was very happy to see many different animals and managed to name most of them too. She has seen them in her readining books, so she knows an Elephant when she sees one! Anyway, here are some pictures taken on the day.

Happy 2nd Birthday Amelie!

Another step up the age ladder for my daughter Amelie (populary known as Tongtong too). Time certainly has flown, and with each day, it doesn't get any easier! She's started to form her own opinions and learning to express them in various different ways. She's a clever little one, but still lacks a certain amount of discipline. That's probably going to come from me, because Chien-yu is a little soft. I just hope she knows it for own good when I give her the smack-botty when she steps out of line. Last night we sang her the birthday song just before we slept (its was about 1am already). After a couple of choruses, she picked it up quickly and sang her own birthday song! Well, almost anyway, because sounded like "Hapi tu tu tu you". More practise for next year! I will add photos later on this evening.

Goodbye P-100

I'm just going to upload the last ever set of photos from our loyal Sony P-100. I will update this post tomorrow. Yup, the Sony P-100 is a gonna. It ain't gonna rise from the ashes, this time... For now here are some photos taken today around Taipei using the Sony P-100 before the evening's accident, which involved Chien-yu, her foot and the hard marble floor we have in our room. We now got a good excuse to get a new, better digital camera. Its going to have to be a Sony one though, because I invested in a 1GB memory stick. Need to make use of that as much as I can! Sigh, money, money and more money.
