Taiwan: Take #2

Taiwan was fun.
Different this time, but still amazing. I have officially explored (almost) every possible tourist site in Taipei. You would think having visited 4 times before I would have done all the touring earlier on, but no. Can't forget the summers of geometry credit by exam prep and algebra homework.
The weather was lovely. At lowest it was around 50, but at one point it was a balmy 74. Fantastic winter weather, right?
So a photo summary of what we did:

Went to see the National Palace:

Saw a number of really lovely parks:

Isn't that pretty?

 Ate some good food (although that bowl wasn't the best beef noodle soup):

 Hiked at Yang Ming Shan National Park:

 And then hiked some more on our neighborhood mountain:

Went to see this magnificent creature at the Taipei Zoo:

And this one:

Rode some Maokong Gondolas:

Went to see a beautiful temple:

 And of course I can't forget this puppy I saw:

 THE END.
