Was suppose to go to UK & Paris for summer vacation this year, but alas things didn’t work out between us.
Had to settle for something nearby and something cheaper.
Thus I headed for a short vacation to Taiwan together with my family.
Things got off to the wrong footing when my plane was delayed for 5 hours.
Mum made a big noise with the tour agency but alas couldn’t get a claim from the insurance because the delay must be more than 6hours before one can claim from the insurance company. :p

Because it was a late night flight.
It was about 12mn the next day when we settled into the hotel.
Thank goodness the room was rather comfy! zzzzzzz

Rise and shine! This what they served for breakfast… yucky taiwanese porridge!

First stop… this is at Lotus Lake in Zuoying is surrounded by many temples…

Dream Mall

After a 3+hour drive from Kaohsiung heading south to Kenting, we arrived at the Eluanbi Lighthouse

It got really windy by the time we reached Maopitou. Almost got blown away by the wind! :p

From Kenting, we headed northwards to Tainan.
During the day, we went for a hot spring bath at Guantzeling. It is a black mud hot spring, it is one of the three of such hot springs in the world (the other two can be found in Italy and NZ). It was very refreshing and relaxing. Wish we spent more time there.
The highlight of the day was definitely the Tainan Local cuisine we were brought to eat! Yummy yummy! :+)
Yam cake

Shrimp Roll

Fried Oysters

And my favourite Guan Cai Ban…
