Backpack to Taiwan - Day 4, National Palace Museum

National Palace Museum :D It was really grand :) We didn't stay there long enough to see all the "wonders" though... I remember when we rushed to see those chops of ancient kings of China, haha.. and that we were slipping around on the slippery floor! Totally fun!

Backpack to Taiwan - Day 4, food

Well.. hehe.. it doesn't look very tasty.. but this is famous in Taiwan... Do Taiwanese really love this? I didn't order these, just Po and Yan :p It tastes okay....

Backpack to Taiwan - Day 4, the hotspring thing

Take a seat :) It was our first time entered the hotspring... it was like.. crazy! You have to be naked! No towels are allowed! We were smart, we got few towels in the hotspring.. hehe... there wasn't so many women in the female hotspring, luckily.. and we talked and talked.. very good experience :)

Backpack to Taiwan - Day 3 @ Believe it or Not

It was the alien. Well, I basically don't believe this is how alien looks. Human beings are pretty funny you know, they feel frightened by other life-form... why?
