Stomach pain and Typhoons!

I haven’t updated the blog for a couple of days as to be honest we haven’t done too much. A couple of days ago I developed some severe… um… stomach problems (poop kind) and didn’t really fancy risking going anywhere. Then yesterday I was feeling a bit better and we met up with some of Tzu-Yun’s family and went for dinner. We had some amazing seafood, I even tried Sea Cucumber (actually pretty good)… stear clear of bitter melon though, that was foul! After this Tzu-Yun’s Brother; San Jier drove us to the mountain to look over the city… an amazing view, I hope the photo I took does it justice.

Today I felt 100% so Tzu-Yun and I went to Daishan. A little part of Taipai that is right near to the sea. We had a good day wondering the streets browsing in some interesting shops and sampling some of the local food. The small stalls dotted all along the street serve things like fresh Squid which is fried in a special sauce and fresh fruit drinks.

We headed home early as Tzu-Yun’s Mum warned us of the oncoming Typhoon. Seriously, it’s not that bad… kinda like a thunder storm in the UK but a lot more constant. The rain is torrential and hasn’t let up for 3 hours and counting. I just hope it doesn’t affect our trip to the middle of Taiwan on Sunday!!
