24-10-2010 ~*SUNDAY*~

Nothing to do in the classroom, so CE brought me to Shei Ba national Park ( 雪霸国家公园 ) during lunch time as there's a harvest celebration of Tai Ya (泰雅)aboriginal people. It was happening, roasted wild boar, powerful music, cultural dances, blah blah blah...Many activities over there and one of the eye opening activity for me was "catching piglets competition", the youngsters of 2 different tribes competed to catch the piggy in the shortest time . They were so rough and the piggies looked shocked and kept ran here and there, felt sorry for those little poor piggies. :'(

We also accidentally met the family of Vivian Xu there (a bit disappointed can't see the Vivian Xu, lol..T_T) The aboriginal people truly ardor, they treated us warmly even though I just met the today!They kept asking us ate the chicken wings, since it was impolite to reject their kindness, what we can did was kept digging in..LOL

Wow~feel great can have a more profound understanding about the culture of Taiwan aboriginal people and experienced their enthusiasm personally^^  This harvest celebration is carried out annually in Taiwan, if you have time, come and have a look there!

What will be of your destiny? =(
They are Vivian Xu grandparents and aunt =D
Cultural dance, i like their traditional costume^^
