Uncharacteristically, I'll let the pictures do the talking - - -
Lewises in the Far East
Abel is going on six-months old, so it's time for the crawling to begin - 24 hours ago, and with that comes some instruction with reading - 2 generations of the family taking on the instruction -
Going farther afield - - involves public transportation - fabulous combination of buses and trains - Abel loves both the train rides and the store outings - this one in something Jess and Lukin call The Everything Store - 4 stories of pretty much everything except construction materials.

Here's a sample of a typical street vendor - they dot the landscape and offer an indescribable variety of foods
Wherever we go, you can count on an admiring audience stopping us to ogle and seek to hold Abel. While we know he's the cutest baby in the word - we're kind of astonished that he is such an attention magnet - maybe the people in Taipei don't see that many western babies his age - lots and lots of fun . Indigenous Peoples Museum - walked miles through the street markets, sampling most interesting foods, the likes of which we've never seen before, offered by vendors most eager to see our reactions - - today we're off to a combination artists and flowers market - then off to the 101 Building, the second tallest building in the world.

Parks and Walks abound |
We're having a great time with Abel, Lukin and Jess - they are awesome hosts and gracious beyond words in giving us exquite tours - linking us up with local cuisine, and tending to our every need.
I'll let Jess and Abel sign off until next time.
