The Chinese New Year is based on the Lunar calendar, and the people remark to me often about how surprisingly accurate that calendar is... The actual days vary per year. While I was gone to Olympia, Taipei was transitioning from winter into spring. Upon my return it was immediately obvious that the cold had left and the warmer temperatures and sunshine had already moved in!
It's hard to capture the beauty of a sunny day in a photograph...
Here are some of my pictures from wandering my last few days of the break...
