Day 27

The team began the day with a visit to a historical Taiwanese residence that is approximately 180 years old. The one level structure included many symbolisms including vases, turtles, bats and books. The home had both public space that included a courtyard and altar area and private space that included the family living quarters. Unattached structures included a schoolhouse, which again showed the importance of education to the Taiwanese even almost 200 years ago.

Our final Rotary presentation and exchange of flags were held at the An Ho Rotary club. We enjoyed the fellowship of the club and especially liked the vocal renditions of Harry Wu. What a voice!

The afternoon was spent leisurely at the presidential residence. We strolled through the beautiful grounds, the herb garden and had tea at the café.
