Our Sun Moon Lake excursion - the American camp counselors (Jake, Naomi, Nick, Laura, Lynda, Anthony

The lake is so blue and beautiful, we just wanted to swim - but it is prohibited (too many boats)

We waited for the bus to take us back down... we hitch-hiked and got a lift from this fruit truck

Sunset one night was absolutely gorgeous - the whole sky was bright orange

We could see both ends of the rainbow and the double reflection of it... this was God's promise

There are nite markets every night - until 2 a.m.! Anything you need you can find at one of these

The lights the shine in the bridge change color periodically - quite a sight to see!

We went to visit another aboriginal church high in the mountains

All the grade 1 and 2 teachers on the end-of-summer field trip

The view from our hotel room! The kids were in tents, and we were in a/c!

Ropelling and all! The field trip was like a 'boy scouts' camping trip

the students made sky laterns that float away like hot-air balloons!

We posed for pictures with each class
