"Sure!"
"It is mmmm... I don't know how say...He Wan SaN...3 tall mountain in Taiwan."
"Cool! Let's go!"
So you take a bus with a bunch of kids, parents, and their teachers just 3 hours north and hit 14.

Shan (Mountain). Third tallest Mountain in Taiwan
Unload from the bus and walk to your campsite.
Ummm that's cool. What is that?
Yup it's a greenhouse type dealio. It's also where you'll be sleeping for the night.
Alrighty then...let's set up camp. cha

Star Party 2008
There were so many amazingly huge telescopes&things....people with their laptops and high tech stuff....
But honestly, the best view of the stars could be seen from this homemade telescope....from Lan Tan Elementary School. I lined up at least 3 times to see the stars from this one.

Star Party peeps waiting, hoping, wishing for their lucky number to be called out for an awesome prize....
This was my lucky number (san-jiu-qi). Not.
Ah well this girl was lucky in love...
okay I know the picture should be about the moment...and for me the moment was about...that ring. check out the ring...hilair. Although the night before there was another engagement and the dude set up a slide show showing them at the star party since 2005 and then there were fireworks! What the engagment! It was sweet enough to make one shed a tear or two.
Alas I was lucky to see such beauty...
