4th anniversary already
結婚紀念

On Friday January 5th we celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary. Can you believe the time has gone by so quickly?!
一月五日,結婚四週年了。時間一定要不知不覺地走得這麼快嗎?
We dropped Fiona off at Auntie Jolene's, then headed out for dinner, just the two of us.
請家人幫我看孟田,我們兩個逍遙去了

Following our custom of trying new ethnic foods, we visited a Xinjiang BBQ place
太久沒試新餐廳了,今天特地挑了沒吃過的新疆烤肉

Xinjiang is the far western province of China, next to Kazakhstan and some of those other central Asian countries. As this mural shows, the local people in Xinjiang are not Chinese, but Uyghur
Xinjiang appetizer: some shredded semi-raw potato thingy And then some sliced onion with herbs and seasoning
Let the grilling begin!
Lamb is a big deal on the menu hereNeat idea -- mini tomatoes wrapped in bacon
There was even some imported Xinjiang beer available to wash down the BBQ. Xinjiang means "new frontier" in the Chinese language
And a trip down memory lane... to one of Gareth and Vivian's first ever dates together. This photo was taken in Feburary 2000. Nearly 7 years ago. What a grand journey it has been :-)
看來時間確實留下了痕跡,只是不自覺罷了
這是2000年二月,將近7年前我們第一次出遊,去石門水庫的照片
