Watoto Reminder


Sunday last, my wife Petra, Jerry and I went to the Watoto concert at Wu Chuan Jr. High. It's hard to express properly for what reasons and how much I enjoyed it - the two being intertwined. I enjoyed it. Petra enjoyed it. Commander Cardy enjoyed it (How often have you seen him shaking his booty?). There are still opportunities to see them. While I have the schedule, I don't have the times. Maybe some - read PIMP - can help out. My wife suggests the Shin Ming date, Wednesday, May 3rd as the best because of the acoustics. Set a time and grab some friends and go. Admission is free, at least it has been so far and I suspect it will remain so. Buy a couple of t-shirts and a CD or DVD to help them out and stick around to talk to the kids. They are all wonderfully cute and polite. I saw more Taiwanese hugging that day than all of my years here combined. Considering most Taiwanese have never hugged their parents or children it was very impressive. Pictured above are the Commander and Bosco, a 12 year-old who would like to be a doctor when he grows up.

  1. A NICE INFORMATIVE POST AND EVEN MORE ENJOYABLE IF YOU OMIT THE 2ND COMMA IN LINE 1.

  2. Thanks for being nice about that. I can't imagine it being anyone that I know. I was alerted to it and since have made it clear - wife:Petra; non-wife: Jerry.
