Today, my roommates Dan and Lauren coordinated a scavenger hunt through the streets of Taipei. It was a "photo scavenger hunt" meaning each team was given a list of things to photograph. Some of these items included: a goat, a pack of stray dogs, sleeping people, kissing people, dancing people, hugging people, someone taller than you, and a group of at least 7 people all wearing glasses. There were probably about 30 items in total. Our groups were divided into boys and girls. My brash and confident "man group" was convinced that we had won the event but we still lost, even though the girls group got a large point deduction for being late.
We asked 3 different cab drivers to dance with us, all of whom declined. We stood in front of various people to get photos of them inconspicuously. We had to walk like ducks as a group in the middle of a very crowded and prominent crosswalk. And the proof of all these deeds was captured on film. Some choice shots will be posted on Flickr shortly. It was quite a day and a very interesting way to experience Taipei!
This morning, I once again had the privilege of tutoring little Brian and it was fun, as always. This time, we did play about five games in a row of Jenga and it was really cute. He kept on saying "it's not so easy" and "scary" if I was moving a precarious piece. Nicole, his sister, tried to play also but she's two, so sadly each game she participated ended disastrously after a few moves.
