Wednesday: From School to Shrimp Fishing

Today 560 6th, 7th and 8th graders gathered to hear Noemi speak. Ken felt right at home with these middle school students. The Vice principal was concerned that the students could sit still for so long. No problem. Once again there was complete attentiveness. 4 Q & A sessions followed. There were lines of students wanting Noemi’s book signed plus a picture. As we walked down the hall a reporter for the Taipei times asked if they could interview Noemi. We have that scheduled for Friday. I told one of the teachers that I felt like a manager for Van Halen.

After a short rest we went to a restaurant for Shrimp fishing with Robin, Pat and friends. It was a very “basic” place and you could fish for huge shrimp that would be cooked for you. We felt like we didn’t want to be out very late so we just passed up the fishing, although some tried. What fun we had! The food was amazing and we all agreed it was the most different, and fun taurant we’ve ever been to.
