After free breakfast in the hotel, we took a cab to the nearest MRT station and board the train to go to Maokong Gondola.
Taking pictures on the way to take the gondolas.
Inside the crystal cabin gondola:
The bottom of the gondola was fitted with tri-layer reinforced glass. The garang ones lying on the glass.
Enjoyed the panorama view of Maokong.
Walked around for a while after we reached Maokong Station via the gondola. Then had our Taiwan sausage before having lunch. Ordered rice with some dishes and soup. Got a great shock cos the soup came in a huge pot and we couldn't even finish half the pot. Such a waste.
It was very cold up in Maokong. So cold that Vincy stole Daddy's jacket on the way to Taipei Zoo via the gondola.
By the time we reached the Zoo, it was already in the afternoon. The entrance tickets to the zoo was very cheap. $2 plus for adult and $1 plus for kids. A good and cheap way to spend a day. Lots of animals there, surprise to see kola bears in the zoo too.
Clarence's favourite: the Gorilla
Paid a visit to the Pandas. But didn't get to see the baby pandas. Only saw the adult panda but couldn't get a good photo of it. Kids were happy with the souvenirs. Clarence chose panda soft toy and Vincy chose panda pencil.
The Zoo was huge. So huge that my legs almost broke from all the walking. Serious, no joke about it.
Dinner: steamboat again. This was a treat from Daddy's Taiwan colleagues.
After our sumptuous dinner, we took a cab to Shilin Market.
Kids love to play the game stalls there. Only let them play 3 games cos I realized it wasn't really cheap. Can't remember exactly how much but one or two games already cost more than our taxi fare.
Clarence trying to lift up the bottle, looks easy but its actually not.
