13 Oct 11 - Taiwan Trip

This taiwan trip was really full of me and mum?
Mostly photos of us. Mainly, I had seen scenary more beautiful than this? Well, I told mum the scenary in asia county less pretty. hmm..grass, not as green? sky not as blue? water not as clear? Hmm..I shall travel more to western countries in future...

Well, back to the trip, 2 days in Qing Jing was a bit long? Hmm, even the taxi driver we took in Taichung was surprised that we stayed 2 nights in Qing Jing rather than Sun Moon Lake. Anyway, we took up some tours to 合歡山. Suppose to go to view sun rise, but the hotel people told us that the weather was bad and we might not be able to see any sun...blocked by cloud.

We went out with "E-go" company, they came to fetch us at the hotel around 8.30am. The driver also picked up some others who joined the tour with us. Some tourist from Hong Kong. The driver who was also our tour guide, introduced the place and did pit stop for phototaking. I would say, the scenary was actually not bad.






















The driver did a stop at some points where we need to "climb" for about 10 minutes to reach the peak. Hmm...it was quite scary at first and me, mum and 1 young couple did not want to continue. There was 1 old couple who made it to the top first! Later, the driver walked the way with us and we made it to the top. It was not so difficult afterall...







The highest point..3275


The driver brought us to this restaurant. Hmm..the food were ex..and we ordered set meals for 800NT, Fish, pork, fish soup, some veg...


Around 5pm, the owner of the hotel drove us to 廬山,Ming Lu hotel for our 温泉. Hmm..the place only me, my mum and 2 old couple..and though stated 2 floors of different pool, but only 1 landing was operating. I even asked the taiwanese whether there were any other pool..and she replied that only that landing. She told me it was boring...


After our "spa", we went to 7 eleven to buy our dinner...hmm..taiwan really had a lot of food! Mum bought curry rice and I bought some beef rice like the Yoshinoya beef rice but with more sauce (Yummy!) and they will help to heat up for us.
