That's great!!! I've been thinking about visiting Palace Museum again for a long long......time. Please have my name on your list. It's a good opportunity to learn about Chinese Culture and how to introduce it in English for our foreigner friends. I believe we can also have a nice trip that day.

Although I've been to National Palace Museum a long long long time ago, I got so excited at the tour we took yesterday, especially it's the tour in English. It's amazing that the Museum is maintained so well which just looks like a brand new one inside and the antiquities displayed there are so so plentiful; Moreover, the tour guide lady was very professional not only with her fluent English but also with her wide knowledge of Chinese culture. Overall, I got a good and rich day. Strongly suggest any of you who didn't show up yesterday can visit there in someday. In the end, I would like to say thank you to the conductor, Anne, who raised this meaningful tour successfully. And of course, thanks to our great president, Happy.......

Hi, everybody.

Brilliant smiles you've got in the picture.

You guys seem to have had a great time touring Chineses antiques and treasures through the English docent(導覽員).

Well, will anyone of you give us another Palace Museum tour some other time...in English??
It would also be a good idea to apply for a vollunteer English docent...Ha-ha, I hear all the English docents work as vollunteers...

After the meaningful, informative, cultural and educational tour, here,s a "riddle" for you...don't get nervous...No, no, no. It's not something about Chinese Emperors...But who was the professional lady giving you guys English tour? A local or a native speaker of English...ha-ha...easy. uh??!!
