My parents are here!

MY PARENTS ARE HERE!
Hi Mom!
My Dad
Yes! First time in all my many years here that they have come to visit. So we're doing the tourist thing. I'll blog on Lung another day....see ya round the island!
Yeah, your father looks like he's the same age as you! Very healthy looking guy! And he looks even happier than you...and you look pretty darn happy yourself, so that's saying a lot!!!
oh man! Michael, you must convince your dad to hang out with us! Show him shots of "The Madonna of Hukou" and Heidi - that should do it! i'm sure he will dig Sauman too! we are looking forward to it!
Hey Michael, I could have told that was your father (or close relative) a mile away. Enjoy the family get-together.

ReplyDeleteMichael, we'll be up in Hsinchu in a couple of weeks -- maybe I'll persuade my Dad to go eat fried squid and sing!
Hey Michael, you are an exact copy of your dad!
