We've had a lot of rain and gray skies lately. Kevin and I took advantage of a sunny Saturday morning this past weekend to go out for coffee and breakfast and then walk to the flower market near our apartment. We had so much fun introducing Ruby to one of our favorite places in Taipei!
 |
| Ruby's first time to the flower market! |
 |
| Ruby draws quite the crowd. Lots of people stopped to say, "Hao ke ai," which means so cute! |
 |
| It sure is nice to be able to hang bags from the stroller and wheel home the heavy potted flowers, rather than lug them home. Ruby was pleased with our purchases! |
 |
| We strolled through Da'An Park on the way home with Ruby and our new flower plants. You can't tell from this picture, but there were a lot of people at the park walking, jogging, practicing soccer, playing with their dogs, doing tai chi, and just enjoying the fresh air and sunshine. |
 |
| Here are our new plants on our balcony. We got a purple plant that is called a paper flower. It's supposed to bloom 4 times per year, so we're looking forward to that! We also got a bright orange begonia. I wish we would have gotten 2 or three more begonias in different colors. They're so bright and cheery outside our window. |
 |
| What a great weekend! Ah, now I need to get back to the housework and grading! |
