DAY 3

went to WenWu Temple [ 文武庙 ]
this is said to be ZhangFei‘s [ 张飞 ] weapon of choice
kinda huge @@

a peacock farm is next on the itinery
and, obviously, as you can tell, these are NOT peacocks
the ones below, ARE peacocks


look at the colorful feathers~
had a look around a LingZhi [ 灵芝 ] centre
picking LingZhi are what most of the people of the Shao tribe [ 邵族 ] did for a living

took a boat and went around the Lake of the Sun and the Moon [ 日月潭 ]
the ride IS windy so…~ had a blast

nice Herbal Tea + Mushroom Egg xD
well, the be exact, the egg was soaked in a herbal tea and mushroom solution
which was quite tasty


now, the boat trip went on for, like, say, 20 mins
so~ camwhore time

had a short talk bout tea and stuff` well, who cares? I get the tea and biscuits for free xD

this is FengJia Night Market` [ 逢甲夜市 ]
its kind of like a market square. to be frank, it IS a square ==”

the famous, well, how do you put it in English? DaChangBaoXiaoChang? haha
large intestine wrapped by the small intestine? OKOK` we’ll stick with the former 
dont worry, no one’s intestines were in it. its just glutinous rice and sausage with some veggies
in Chinese, its 大肠包小肠 [ 注:台湾用的是繁体字,这儿写的都是简体; 懒惰换去繁体,不好意思哦 ]

hotel for the nite in TaiChung. ^^ notice the ‘E’ was missin from the hotel sign though xD
