Taiwan snap snaps part X

More Taiwan:
We found a farmers market in Taipei
Nice night market
That place which inspired Spirited Away


That town were people send lanterns into the sky. Seems cool but careless







When Matt burnt his entire mouth from a sausage on a stick
Ok, so apparently if you write NY people think 'New York', I was supposed to write NYE

Hung over dimsum

NYE celebrations 2018 at Taipei 101 - we had a sweet spot!


Matt preparing for his backup career as a miner


Taiwan snap snaps Shifen waterfall

Yes, it was rainy and foggy the whole time we were in Taiwan. But we made the most of it OK?







Too much posing?

Taiwan snap snaps Elephant mountain

Elephant mountain. The rain, the fog, the view?:









Taiwan snap snaps Raoche night market and the high tea mountains

I'm finally getting around to putting some pictures from out trip to Taiwan up here!

Here's our trip to Taiwan, more my own personal memory.
I will point out that we took a fancy camera we don't really understand how to use.

The first thing we did when we arrived was head straight to a night market:

At the end of Raoche St. Night market
And tried some foods:

Deep friend mushrooms yummmmmmm

The mushroom assortment was tasty

We don't know what half of this stuff is. Rolled potato things?

Matt waited ages for a harumaki

And it was disappointing

I waited ages for corn... it also wasn't that great


On the way back to the hotel we stopped at a combini to see if there was stuff that couldn't be found in a regular Japanese combini:

Asparagus Juice. whaaaa
I actually bought some and then left it in the fridge in our room. I guess I was never in the mood to drink asparagus juice. Never had the natural urge. What a shame.

On the way back we saw a family on a tiny bike. Oh non-Japanese Asia, its been a while:

Safety first people!


The next day we went up the gondola from Taipei Zoo and trekked around:











We got very lost at certain points. But it was an overall pleasant experience.





ok geez, i get it taking selfies in circle mirrors is cliche

Best high mountain tea everr

It was the most expensive, but definitely our favourite meal of the whole trip


rainbow on the gondola back!

This statue is kind of strange right?
