Our new car

It was great fun to take the bus and to talk to cab drivers, but it was too difficult to do shopping and we didn’t see any of Taiwan — we had to get a new car. And here it is! A spanking new Suzuki Swift. It’s everything our old KIA was not — peppy, easy to park and good on gas. And it’s cute like an overgrown toy car.

No, we don’t all fit comfortably into it for longer journeys, but the idea is to get two (once we’ve saved up some more money). The only thing that annoys me is that everyone else seems to be buying the same car right now. (The little car showroom where we bought ours sells one Swift a day). Maybe we should have gotten one in electric pink just to stand out from the crowd.
