We drove from Taichung to Sun Moon Lake and then to Chiai. The major highlight of the day was this serene trip to the seemingly vacant temple in Taiping where we roamed the complex and then were invited to have lunch with the monks and nuns. Little Elnorra was such a hit that I spent most of the time after lunch escorting her around to see all the nuns who wanted to see the cute baby. Her overall pockets were stuffed with little candy presents from these very friendly folks. We then proceeded to Sun Moon Lake and Ben and Windy had a nice time in a rowboat on a mini date. Once we had found another cheap hotel near the train station (notice the trend here?) we went to the night market and had the famous Chiai “Chicken Rice” and then had “mango bing” (shave ice with real fruit topping) for dessert.
