Last Saturday, we had a Halloween Party at one of my friends' home. His dog was so exciting, and kept playing with a toy cat. You will be laughing once you see what she was doing - yes, she, not he, a girl.

Chinese New Year show by Zhao Benshan

The famous comedy show star, Zhao benshan came to Bay Area this weekend, bringing us a very nice show. It makes us laugh for a whole night.

You are probably familiy with the scene of Grand Canyon in Summer, red color rock, clear sky, dead hot in the Canyon. It's totally different in Winter, check this out.

Mystery Road, Jeju Island, Korea

Wendy and I visited Jeju Island, the Hawaii of Korea, during the Thankgiving holiday. On our way from Mt. Halla to the airport we took a detour to see this “mystery road,” also known as a gravity hill. From one end, the road appears to decline—but in fact it inclines. The blue sign on the left tells you to put your car into neutral at that point. We did so, and were amazed when it seemed that the car was being pulled up the hill. Check it out the video and see yourself.



Here is the truth: The road runs downhill at a steeper grade further toward Mt. Halla, but when it gets to around the blue sign it levels out just enough for the surrounding visual cues to make you think that it's going back uphill again.

"Bian Lian", or face-changing in Sichuan Opera

I have heard "Bian Lian", or face-changing in Sichuan Opera for a long time, but never got a chance to see it in face, until recently - a master of sichuan opera showed this famous "Bian Lian" at CNetwork's Chinese New Year party.

I had a road trip to Las Vegas and Arizona from Dec. 25, 2006 to Jan. 2. 2007. The trip gave me many good surprises, such as the "Le Reve" show at Wynn hotel in Las Vegas, the snow and floating cloud in Grand Canyon, the snow covered Monument Valley, the petrified forest - huge redwood logs that were burried millions of years ago, the 10 feet high saguaro tress, and joshua trees... I have shot tones of beautiful pictures and videos, and I am going to show these pictures and videos at a party soon. The following is the trip vedio trailer.

My friend, Yida, singed a song at a Chinese New Year celebration party hosted by CNetwork. Here is the video clip.
