| that tray came in handy as they served us orange juice and Taiwanese-style McDonald's breakfast sandwiches |
 |
| first stop: guinea pig and rabbit feeding |
 |
| it's hard to pick just one picture of this one! |
 |
| after a parrot show, we collected our bian dang (packaged lunches). we had two Asian style ones with rice, chicken, cucumbers and cabbage, and two western style ones, which turned out to be all breads and cakes |

 |
| bees |
 |

 |
| second stop: lao jie, or old streets with lots of food stalls |
 |
| they actually found something they liked: pickled mangoes |
 |
| biggest radish cake we've ever seen |
 |
| some kind of scrubbing vegetable |
 |
| got some sugarcane, something I remember from my childhood visits. girls weren't crazy about it, even after I cut it up |
 |
| typical dinner with a leftover lunch box, radish cake, bread, tofu. funny how buddy has picked up the Taiwanese photo gestures ;-) |
 |
| went into Taipei for church, but not a great success with minimal comprehension =p |
 |
| lunch with my aunt afterwards |
 |
| she brought us to visit her friend's grandkids |
 |
| the kids are always fascinated by the various Taiwanese exercise machines |
 |
| my aunt's friend took us to the kids' area at their club |
 |
| the girls got along well, after the requisite games of tag and hide and seek. but the friend's English turned out to be much better than the girls' Chinese, so that was the path of least resistance =p |
 |
| that night, I couldn't get the door open to the room i'm sharing with s, and this is what I found when I turned on my phone light ;-) |
