Reunion is to reunite with relatives, friends and classmates whom have seen each other for a while and have party together.  I think I have a strange pool side reunion but with lots of fun.

My cousin Chinyao was sent out of TW several years ago by his father to Argentina before Junior High.  He was such a brave boy to survive by himself over there.  His parents only visited him only 1~2 times each year because it takes about 24 hours to fly there.  

5 Years later, he moved to US and finished a master degree at University of Wisconsin, Madison campus.  At school he met his girl friend Danielle Zerbe at Eastern religion study club.  After graduation, his girl friend moved to Poland for 1 year because she likes its culture and language.  My cousin had to chase her to there and stayed with her for the last 4 months.  Then they got married.  But we kept crossing each other and I never met them in US.  I only saw him 3 years ago at his Mom's funeral when his Mom died during heart surgery.  But his wife didn't attend the funeral and I still haven't met here.

Due to emotional impact of sudden death of love one, my cousin decided to stay in TW and his wife join him later.  They have stayed in TW for 3 years.  I came back on last Saturday.  I called him next morning but he already left with friend for Maioli's strawberry field enjoying fruit picking fun.   He won't be back in Taichun until late afternoon.  But he and Danielle had a very busy schedule too.  They already planned a 2 hours swimming exercise at night.

They proposed to have me join their swimming.  I didn't bring back any swimming suit with me.  I bought one at his sport club and had 2 hours spa and swimming with them.  I invited them to dinner at my treat but they kindly turned down because they all are on vegetarian diet.  She cooked brown rice, corn with milk and baked chocolate with nuts.  Not bad at all and delicious.  I was also amazed that Danielle can speak fluent Chinese in less 3 years.  She really has linquistic talent.  She doesn't like me to communicate with her in English. 

I took some picture with them but I can't post them now because I didn't bring digital camera cable with me and do the upload.  I will post them later.  But there is no picture at swimming pool.  I assume people can't take photo in swimming pool area due to privacy concern.

My next task is to visit my Aunt's new home in Sin Dian on Thursday.  She said bring over the swimming suite and join uncle at their on-site spa.  What a spa season.
