    Did you enjoy Shiling Night Market?
    the Palace Museum is really very stately....too bad too many tourists for any one to concentrate on the exhibit...did you get pushed?

    The last time I visited Taiwan was 3 years ago.

    And I stayed in Taiwan for 3 months 20 years ago.

After the prayer with the chanting from the priest sitting in front, we were given a sweet dessert which I must receive it with both palms. Of course, we had to eat it. We adjourned to the dining hall and had our breakfast. The Punjabi tea was totally different from our usual tea. Since we had ...
