Farewell 2010 - Hello 2011

Our very first attempt at creating a travel blog for the benefit of friends and family.

The past year has been awesome indeed as we closed off 2010 with a trip to Taiwan for Sandra's Son Damon's marriage to Sabrina Wang on Christmas day. We arrived a week before the wedding and stayed through New Years in order to enjoy some of the sights and sounds of Taiwan and Taipei, not the least of which was taking in the New Years Eve fireworks display off of Taipei 101 (~ 850,000 people were in the streets for the event).

Live volcanic activity up on Yangminshan Mountain where we enjoyed an afternoon of hiking.

An absolutely beautiful Bride and a pretty handsome Groom too - even if Mom does say so!  Welcome to the family Sabrina.  Damon and Sabrina will continue to make their home in Taiwan.

 Taipei 101 on New Years Eve - the 100th Anniversary of the ROC.


 Barry and Sandra returned to Arizona for the balance of the winter.  We plan to embark on a cross Canada / USA trip commencing mid July 2011 and will provide frequent posts to this blog for the benefit of friends and family who might like to check in on us. 

 Stay tuned!
