• Ice ice baby! It's COLD

    13. december 2024, Taiwan ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C

    We left our favourite little island early this morning on the ferry. There was only about 10 people on the ferry and we were back to the mainland quickly. We had a bus ride for an hour and then onto a bullet train! It went very fast, nearly 300kms an hour!. I love how fast they go- you look out the window and zoom, it's gone.
    Our next place is called Taichung. It's a big city and the hotel is right across from the train station and next to a mega mall!! I am pumped, Grinchy is not so pumped.
    Me and brother went to to movies this afternoon by ourselves to see Moana. Going to the movies in Taiwan was pretty similar but they had subtitles in the movie. It was a bit more expensive than Australia too.
    We caught a bus to some night markets and found more delicious food to try. I found a curry pork and egg scallion and it tasted like Keens curry- we all loved it. On the way home we went through some Christmas markets and we stopped to make a pendant. We melted some plastic and then stamped the coloured plastic onto a design. I chose a sea turtle to remind me of the great island we were just on. I really enjoyed making my pendant. The lady helping us was kind.
    And the weather here is sure different- freezing cold!!!! I have to go buy some more long pants it is so cold. What a shame, means we will need to go shopping tomorrow! Haha Grinch!
