I figure now you can all see exactly what you have to look forward to if you ever make it to this friendly Asian island! :) .....and if you will never make it here, you can still consider this a glimpse at a day in the life...
The crew met me for lunch this day. I was working again, but lucky for them Jason was off work again and he is a great tour guide!
Bamboo Shoots at Formosa Chang's Casual sit-down restaurant selling dirt cheap traditional Taiwanese food |
Chrissie enjoying some 'lu ro fan' (pork with rice) |
Lu Ro Fan, with orange pickled vegetable on the side [pronounced "loo row fun"] ~~~ This stuff is delicious! |
National Palace Museum - with it's aqua and orange tiled rooftops |
Mom with a Chinese lion |
Brief glimpse of the grounds It was raining so unfortunately they did not get to tour the gardens that day |
After the National Palace excursion, I am told the ladies entertained themselves by cruising some of the many department stores near our home. No photos of them shopping though ;)
Ah yes, time for me to get off work and join them! |
Window into the kitchen where delicious dumplings are being made! |
At least you know if you make it to Taipei there is plenty of good food to be found! Ha, I feel like the photos from this day are all food - but of course, that is always the highlight of our vacations, finding the best local food! :)
