Memories Alive – Day 7 Revisiting Taipei Nov 08..
The day before tomorrow..
1 full day today and about half a day tomorrow would be all we have for our 8-days tour in Taipei this November.

Memories Alive – Day 6 Revisiting Taipei Nov 08..

Changing plans again?
Our younger nephew was having stomach trouble in the morning. It looked like we might have to amend our itinerary for this Day 3..
The initial plan for the day was to travel out of Taipei to the theme parks in Tao Yuan and Hsin Zhu. Travelling in some hour-long distances by bus and possibly cabs are required. I suggested: Why not we leave the theme parks for another day, and...

Tired before the day begins?
Were we all tired today!
It was just day 2 of our tour. We planned to visit Yeh Liu Ocean world, Kee Lung and Ping Xi railroad scenic area today.. It would be lunchtime when we reached Kee Lung. We might not have ample time to explore too many places..
Let us leave out Ping Xi first, and play by ear as we go along. Shall we? :-)
