Taiwan 2017 – Day 2 Posted by Galen on November 18, 2017January 23, 2018 That’s how Jadynn sleep between us a night.just like a bucket of water, if you know what I mean..Scary sight!New way to wear slippersTiny hallwayFirst time at a hotel for Jadynn.Aiden didn’t bring his dino with him this time.But Daddy brought a teddy bear for JadynnIn case she wants some extra cuddlingShe definitely got some from Aiden.She made everyone kiss the bearSo the bear definitely got some extra loveAgain and AgainAnd it’s not okay to passOr someone persists until you give inThe two of them had a ball in a different environment.But not without supervisionJadynn doesn’t know how to spell DangerAnd to Aiden, it’s never happening to him….But they aren’t always loves and kissesSometimes got to separate the two of them!But Jadynn so adores her brother!When he’s in trouble, she is the first to go to him.She doesn’t always stay for longBut she’ll definitely let him know she cares and he’s not alone.Hotel Breakfast.Included with our room.Only got a couple drinks and some small bites, because we are heading out for some real breakfast.Jadynn loves the corn.maybe she just too hungry.Better feed the kids first before we head out.The breakfast place we are going will have a long line.Don’t want any crying baby or kid to start the day.She enjoyed her meal more than anyone at our table.It wasn’t mommy’s cup of tea.Daddy finish his meal quickly too.And time to take some pictures tooJadynn still very excited.Better eater than Mommy this day.Here when you are done you put your food, dish and trash awayNew trick: sucking finger while self feeding.We are done and ready to head out!Daddy needs some morning coffee, since he woke up so early.Wilbeck CoffeeA local favorite.Tried the 黑糖拿鐵 on the first day. And coming back to try to Sesame Coffee Latte tomorrow. It’s pretty darn good and refreshing.Love its decoration.Old cameraFrom a different angleWhat an oldie phone!This was alone time for Daddy.Their sesame latte is so good. yum..添好運.. daddy wanted to try, but stomach got no room.They were filming something.But we had no idea what.Light rain.We are here for the real breakfast, 阜杭豆漿, not only tourist but the locals are all lining up too.the line is wrapping around half of this building.We are at the end of the line at 9amBaby Jadynn still adjusting to jet lag.In just 3 minutes, the line grew even longer.After 40 min, we are inside the building.And found the line continued upstairs.The kitchenAmy approved.Already 45mins.豆漿, 甜燒餅, 油條, 飯團, 煎蛋.. All so good.Eggs again for Aiden.Some buildings just stand out.Last time Jadynn wearing these blue AdidasWe found these are too tight for her feet even though there is plenty of room for her toes. She got chunky feet.People are lining up to shop in a rainy day.Another first for JadynnThe people are so nice, give us a seat since I’m with kids.So we can take our family pic.Takes a lot to get 4 smilie faces.Aiden is stoked!But this was a rough trip for him.We were going to go to the Taipei ZooHowever, its started pouring again. Better stay indoors.Changed our plan and went to ride gondola 貓空纜車.First time for JadynnAiden did ride the one in HKG before, not sure if he still remember tho.On the way up Aiden was still somewhat engaged.Aiden’s been helping us carrying Jadynn’s diaper and wipes through out this trip.We had other people on the gondola with usThey offered to help us take a family photo.Surprisingly everyone looking at the cameraAll smilingA good take esp by someone who is not Daddy the photographer.Taipei 101The weather wasn’t really goodIt was super cold and windy outside!The Maokong mountain so SHORT, 香港山頂 is only 552m, and this is not even 300m.We got to the top.But quickly leftWe didn’t want anyone to get sick since our trip just started.Especially since our next destination would be much colder!There are not as much people going down.So we got our own gondola this time.We saw the temple from afar.Panoramic viewNot only AIden was getting restless.So was Jadynn.She gave Mommy the super sad puppy dog eyeand most sad cry she could come up withAnd Mommy totally fell for it!Aiden tried to cheer her up.Done with gondolaTaking bus to our lunch place.Daddy’s hair matches with the bus.But it’s not obvious at all.Can you see?But even with the Mickey back pack, he was very cool!We were sitting comfortably as Daddy stood.Aiden needed to rest his feet too! He hadn’t needed to walk so much on previous trips.First time riding bus in Taiwan this time. Both kids are free, and cost us only 30TWD each.But this time, no stroller for Aiden.有點品食Can you figure out what we are eating for lunch yet?That’s one corner of the restaurantWe are here for the 肉骨茶, only $280 TWD.The restroom is behind this huge iron door.Inside give you a feeling of hardship.A very 文青 feel restaurant.This little boy has been giving us a handful through out the whole trip.Bribing him doesn’t always work.But of course he is tired, every day we walk between 10K-20K steps. With his size stride, it’s definitely even more steps!肉骨茶set麻油松板豬setClose upVeggies with a little spice.I wouldn’t call it delicious, but it was a nice experience.Another displaySome things seem so randomOhh, even a large group can come.More walking timeContinue to our lunch-rathon.Just a few blocks away,A ramen joint originated from Shibuya, Japan.Famous for their ebi soup base ramen.All adults must order a certain amount of food.What a challenge, since we were still full!And we had 2 cranky kids.It felt like it took them a while to bring us the food.The first slice of bamboo taste so good.But the second bite was on the salty side.But mommy enjoyed this ramen shop more than any other ramen shop on this trip.We couldn’t finish though because we were so full.No time to stop! Let’s keep walking to burn the calories hahaAfter the ramen, we are heading to dinner.Yes more food awaits us!We are back to SOGOBatman walking around but Aiden was too shy to go take a picture with him.We were roaming around while waiting for a table at 鼎泰豐Seated at last!Someone is not impressed yet.I think she just wants FOOD!Mommy enjoyed previous time at Din Tai Fung more.maybe just too fullBut their service is still the sameThey treat you very wellJadynn got to snack on some food while we waitedShe is not too full since she was sleeping at the first lunch location and partially slept through the second lunch location.Their baby cabbage was very delicious.DumplingsCrab dumplingSoup dumplingThe one item which we find the taste to be significantly different from the States is the beef soup`Too much alcohol in this one Continue Reading Previous article Taiwan 2017 – Day 1Next article Taiwan 2017 – Day 3
