Spring Break 2

Cynthia's family lives in a house built on land which had been in their family for several hundred years. Cynthia's great-great-great grandfather was the mayor of Taichung county, and other members of her family had been quite prominant as well. Here's Cynthia with some family journals, around 200 years old.














Here's a painting of Cynthia's great-great-great grandfather. The tree in the painting is in Cynthia's front yard. In order to become the mayor, he hd to lift two huge concrete blocks, which he's sitting on in this painting. The blocks now sit in Cynthia's living room. He also competed in a sport involving a big metal spear-thing (in the painting, by the tree). This is also in her living room.
