Matsu Festival, Taiwan

What a great picture! This card comes to me from

Angie, who lives in Taiwan. She writes:

'This photo was taken in Dajia, a small fisher

village about 40 km from where I live. On this

card, it shows a participant of Matsu Festival.

Matsu, the Mother, is the protector for all the

sailors. For those whose life depends on the

dangerously unpredictable ocean, Matsu is like

an eternal lighthouse to ensure their safe return.

For those whose loved ones are on the boat, it is for

a peaceful mind.'

Thank you, Angie, for such a lovely card!

Angie put this great stamp on her card. It seems

to be children playing on percussion

instruments. Beautiful!
