Confucius temple Taipei is quite a relaxing place. Unlike many of the other temples you don’t have people running about madly praying waving incense sticks, so you can take your time a bit more without feeling like you are in the way.
Then along comes Cheng Cheng Fa. A nice happy little old man, i think from Japan, he is a volunteer in the temple. He is quite chatty and wanted our picture taken together. We of course obliged. Then he kept appearing and asking us questions whilst we were looking around, then more photos, more questions and all the while scribbling in his notebook. I guess he is interested in foreigners and probably not many people give him the time of day. He was quite excited to tell us he had been to Australia for 12 days 10 years ago and he has a friend there, In Brisbane or Canberra.
