Taiwan Travel | Spirited Away Jiufen at Night + Getting Lost to Find the Old Tea House
December 28, 2017

December 8, 2017
Taiwan Day 2: Taipei Zoo, Maokong Gondola Ride, Maji Square and Taipei Fine Arts Museum It was dark and gloomy when we woke up the following day in Taipei. It is as if it is an invitation to just stay in bed (and nurse my sore legs from yesterday’s hike at Elephant Mountain).  Here’s our […]
