Our Big Fat Family

Who is Huat?

Our Family.  It's mind boggling.  It grows and then it fades into oblivion. We come from Europe and China.  Why did we move?  How did we get cousins and uncles in Tokyo, Kuala Lumpur, Vienna, Penang, Germany, Scotland, Kansas City, Graz, Muar, New York City, Phoenix and Sankt Stefan, Austria?
