Wulai and the Mountains

We spent Sunday in Wulai, the mountainous region of Taipei county just south of Taipei city.

In the morning, Roy cooked me cheesecake and cream puffs. They were delicious.

Wulai is a fun place in a mountainous jungle region. There is a tram that takes you up to the part of Wulai where the falls, ponds and streams, and attractions are. The mountains are covered in vibrant green foliage, and lush green jungle covers the panoramic view at the top of the mountain.

There was a Chinese horror ride, and obviously I had to go on it. We all went, and one of the girls came out crying a little bit. She was fine, so it was funny.

Then we got some boats, and paddled them around a ring. Kinda fun, though people were always getting jammed up in the narrow part of the stream.


We returned to the main part of the village and walked down the main street. There was an open market where I tried an egg that had been cooked in spring water and was quite sweet. I also tried a really good Taiwanese soda that came in a glass bottle and had a little glass marble in it. Cannot remember the name, nor would I be able to spell it anyway.

Then we came back, and ate some fried chicken and pizza. Oh and also some corn soup. I drank some whiskey and coke and then fell asleep. I'm now awake at 5 AM Taiwan time and ready for more. Let's do it!

Sorry but it is hard for me to write inspiring things without pictures and when I have to rush to post something every day! I'll try to get used to it, and when I have time I'll get wireless at a Starbucks to add pictures!
