Night Photography On A Mountain

We went on a little walk at night on the mountain to see the view! It was hard for me to get shots that I was really satisfied with, but here are two that I like most. Click on the photo for a bigger view.

Looking down at Luku. the moon is in view! unintentionally

A little windy road below. Next time I'm going to try to
take a closer shot at it

Hot Pot and Concrete

No, we did not eat concrete, but we ate in this nice building at this restaurant called Hassen.



under the wooden lid is the hot pot!


I did not take any pictures of the cooked food because I was too busy eating. But you can check out their website for their menu and stuff if you wish!
yum
 Afterwards we went to my uncle's house. My cousin has a cute 6 month old baby!!!

Birthday Cake

Birthday cake! (not the Rihanna song that I barely know) It was my mom's birthday this weekend and my aunt brought this beautiful and tastey mango cake!! IT WAS SO GOOD and not too sweet.

Zhong Zi and a Ninja

This past weekend was Duan Wu Jie, this traditional Chinese holiday where they make this kind of pyramidal sticky rice stuff inside some leaves. My mom and aunt made some and they were delicious!

I also came across a garment that was fit for a ninja. Turns out it's my grandma's..

Zhong Zi

My grandparents' dog, Xiao Bai (Little White) really wanted some..
