ok. so i didn't actually climb a mountain, but i did hike to the top of a little mountain near us to see a buddhist temple near our school. some crazy teacher took me to the top with our classes for a peace day hike. was pretty fun, but wish allison could have gone to the top. by the way, going on a hike here is a little different than at home. they don't know what switchbacks are. they just go straight ahead and you hike up or down a hill with stairs. ok, on with the pics (and lots of them):
our "gym"
the trail up
eek! wish allison would have been there for this one
our school from above

WOW~ what amazing pictures. Hard to believe you can take a walking field trip and be in such a beautiful location!
ReplyDeletePeace to you too.
Love you~ Mom
How was the temple? Did you get a chance to Baibai (拜拜) (worship)? I always find it's relaxing and rewarding after a good temple hike to light some incense, bow, kneel and meditate for a while before depositing the incense in the urn and heading back down.
