Day 3 In Taipei

After breakfast at the hotel, we went to Sogo for a walk. Pastor Yong introduced us to more food at the basement. Then we had Japanese food at Aubergine which serves very nice (what else will you expect from Pastor Yong) Japanese curry...:) Sorry guys, pictures later...

After lunch, we walked from Sogo to Taipei 101. It was a very nice walk. Even though it was noon and the sun was out; the weather was superb! We were not perspiring at all... There was even a gentle breeze that followed us. We cut across National Dr. Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall ( 国父纪念馆) to get to Taipei 101. Met Pastor Wayne for Coldstone ice-cream (another of Pastor Yong's recommendation) New York New York shopping centre.

From there, we went up Taipei 101. Breath-taking view of Taipei from level 89 and outdoor observatory at level 91... It is amazing how men can design such a tall building ... Reminds me of the Tower of Babel...

Had dinner at 度小月; a noodle restaurant recommended by Pastor Yong (again!). Guess who we saw? Elva Hsiao (萧亚轩)! Sigh, too bad our camera went dead... Was so tempted to approach her for a picture...

After dinner, we went to Shilin night market... Oh man, what a crowd! Shopping, eating, shopping and more eating... With our kids in tow, we walked till 11pm and there were still streets that we did not cover...

Anyway, 3 more days to go in Taiwan. Bringing the kids to the zoo tomorrow!
