Went with 4th and 1st uncle to Yang Ming Shan along with their wives and 4th aunty. Yi Je is 4th uncle's son who also joined us. We headed for La Ku for hot spring. The facility had a hot and cold pool option for each room. It was 300 yuan per room. I really like the option of going in and out of each one. It feels great to go back and forth. The window has real bamboo plants for viewing. The facility also runs on A/C so you can be comfortably hot and cool same time.
For lunch we went to Chang Cun for lunch and had the buffet. I like buffets because you can have a variety of things. The trouble is there is just too much to choose from and then it is overwhelming. During lunch the affection of uncles and aunties were upfront. They really take good care of each other and respect one another. I see why they are all still married and have healthy families.
At night a neighboring toddler screamed an cried in the stairway. A passerby stopped to check up on them. Somehow the mother passed out on the way up the stairs to their apartment.
A week ago the top news was from a rising young actress who died in a car accident. She was in the passenger seat and she did not have a seat belt on. The driver was her manager and she had a seat belt on and was fine. The idea of wearing seat belts is still no embedded in people. It really saves lives. I personally knew of a woman who had the same thing happen, she died on sight. She was not wearing a seat belt when her husband drove off the road. Both her 12 year old daughter and her husband were fine and not even hospitalized. Yet she died on the spot all because she didn't wear a seat belt. It was sad and something that could have been avoided. Just gotta click it!
