This is Rock. I am the one who will take you to Ilan. Hahaha... See you on Sunday.

[Dimitri]

[Louise]

hi ben,

sorry i cannot provide my car, but i can provide Dimitri's.
Thank you !

Hi Louise,

Do you mean your car and Dimitri have something in common.? So you want to replace the car by Dimitri.

[rock]

Many thanks to everybody, especially to Ben. He took us to many dangerous places and we had a very unique experience in Yilan. Benjamin, you are a good guy.
Just curious how Dimitri can survive the serious sunburn. He looked like a lobster well-done yesterday....

[CarmenTao]

Hey!!Too bad I couldn't go with you. I wanna see the pix.

Show me the pix!!!!

[hakee]

Hey there, I had the most exhilarating day in Yi-Lan yesterday, the activities were ass kicking, the food was nothing less than delectable and I, just like Dimitri, got sunburnt like hell.

I kinda feel like I'm another version of Kentucky Fried Dimitri or something.

Once again, thanks so much to Benjamin for organizing such a BREATHTAKING trip, I'm sure EVERYONE who went enjoyed it as much as I did.

Till next time!

[Louise]

oh ... KFD sounds delicious...

Ha... thanks to Benjamin, we had more than an outing in Yilan...
He was our babysitter and took care of everything for us.
I almost burst into tears when I saw him carrying lunch for 10ppl by himself... how touching !!

And... thanks to Richard for driving for us... so that we can have a safe trip this time ! oh... thanks for Dimitri for his nice car !!

Yes, we did enjoy this trip as much as Hans did !! for sure !!

[Dimitri]

Well, technically I'm more like roasted than fired, (maybe I should be called "el Dimitri loco") but either way I'm not delicious at all. I took a bite last night. The skin is crispy, but still raw inside.

Anyway, we really had a lot of fun yesterday, thanks to Benjamin's babysitting. And I hope he doesn't have to work in his uncle's restaurant or his student's souvenir shop to pay the debt.

Glad I had such a nice trip during my short stay in Taiwan.

[Richard Chen]

Thanks to Benjamin!

You are a wonderful host.

[CarmenTao]

Oh my God.
Richard,
Where did you get the lion image? It's incredibly cute. Sooooooooo cute!!!!!

[hakee]

Yes, Benjamin, thanks so much again for the WARM HOSPITALITY you gave us on Sunday, I haven't felt such warm hospitality in Taiwan for a LONG LONG time already, it was actually scorching hot in Yi-Lan on Sunday and I felt I was baking in the sun, to borrow Benjamin's quote that entire day, "You people are 17 year old today, go and ENJOY the fun", so yeah, off we went.

I would like to thank everybody who was there to serve me the "balloon feast" that was a lot of water I had to face whilst walking the WIRE. BUT thanks to the HOT weather I could cool down a lot.

The DOUGHNUT(THANKS to LOUISE for INSISTING) was a lot of fun, I really enjoyed that a lot.

And LASTLY, that dish of SASHIMI was nothing short of DELECTABLE, thanks again Benjamin for making Sunday such a memorable TRIP!!!!!

As we would say in South Africa, BAIE DANKIE VIR DIE LEKKER GASVRYHEID, Ek het dit baie GENIET!!!

[Selena C. Chang]

Thank you all so much for bringing us back to SEVENTEEN!!!

When Rock and I became the first two persons in the group to slide into the pool, we were seventeen.
When everybody stood and fell over and over again on the huge waterbed, we were seventeen.
When we preteneded we were swimming in the shallow stream and playing some silly game, we were seventeen.
When we were enjoying the tasty lunch Ben bought for us, we were seventeen.
When we played all the field games and 'punishments', we were seventeen.
When we were playing the floating 'doughnut' , we were seventeen.
When we were fed so well in Ben's uncle's restaurant, we were seventeen.
When we were on some beach in Suao, seeing and listening the sea in dark, we were seventeen...

Hey Benjamin, if you see this post, it's Hans.

I just have one question, how do we get the original photos from you?

Can you maybe upload it to a server so that we can all download it?

Thanks

Hans
