Fine-tuning tour ideas!
“Don’t look at how many days are left, but rather how much we’ve enjoyed the days so far.” This was what I shared with my wife and nephews when we landed in Taipei days ago.
For planning purposes however, the days must be counted and the ideas fine-tuned further. We have 3 days left, to make the most fun out of the planning we had crafted
We would tour a special part of Taiwan this day: Ping Xi railroad route. Join us! :-)
