It's great to have a birthday in the mission field!
Birthday bike ride up Taiping Mountain:
Afterwards, we headed north and attended the Taipei Temple. While there, we were invited to attend the annual potluck dinner for all temple workers, held next door at the Taipei Service Center (on right), which also houses two chapels and the distribution center:
We had a great time! So met so many of our past missionaries...
as well as parents of our currently serving missionaries:

All so wonderful, it almost made me forget the part about turning 55! Bahhh!
I am Sister Megan Porter's mom and just wanted to say thank you for blogging about the mission. It is great to see and read what happens there. My daughter is looking forward to getting out in the field. Happy belated birthday!
