Pumpkin #2 (coming soon)

We just came back from a few weeks of travelling to Taiwan, Japan and the US.  The sheer number of photos we took from these trips means it will be a while before everything is uploaded.

Meanwhile, we've got some videos to show but thanks to the Great Fire Wall of China, YouTube and most video sites are blocked.  We're looking for solutions to solve that...

- Janet & Gary  (November, 2009)

We make our first trip back to SFO since Larissa was born.  In the two weeks there we filled our schedule with family members, friends and some sight seeing.  Larissa has never been with so many other kids, played with so many dogs and been in the car for so many long drives.  Meanwhile Gary goes trigger happy and takes over 930 pictures in 2 weeks...

I make a trip to Tokyo to attend the most exciting game show of the world.  What I found was a TGS significantly smaller in size than previous years.  Something that goes against the trend everywhere else in the world.

I return to Japan to visit TGS 2009.  An incredible journey with sumo matches, Kobe beef, great friends new and old, lots of great food, sake, beer and a ton of fun. 

We head back to Taiwan to visit Larissa's new cousin.

We invite our good friend Candy and Claus over for our daughters to get to know eachother.

I make a trip to SFO to attend GDC 09 while as well as visit some friends and family

As Larissa reaches her 1st birthday, we go back to Taiwan and celebrate with family and friends.

For Chinese New Year, we all went to Cebu for a beach getaway - and Larissa's first contact with beach and water.

We were invited to Iain's XMas party.  It was a lot of fun watching all the kids play together.  We also got to know Iain and Anita, who are wonderful people and we look forward to spending more time with them in the future.
