A Trip To Maokong

We drove to Maokong and had lunch there


Part of the restaurant—dining outdoors is great!


The restaurant’s signboard


They cooked vegetarian dishes for me—it’s convenient to get veggie food here!


My favorite dish—fried sweet popato…yummy!


After lunch we left for Maokong Station—going to take the gondola


A small shopping center there, but we didn’t enter it


Had to pay for the tickets first


Some things you gotta pay attention to listed on the screen


I was in the cabin…the scenery in the mountains is magnificent!


Hehe it is much more fun than taking the rollercoaster!


Too bad we did not visit a very famous temple nearby…

But it is ok…we plan to take a trip to Pinlin in the near future. ^_^b

Mushroom Hotpot on Typhoon Day

Good to have something special isn’t it. *grins* I bought the mushrooms in a small wok at a local supermarket ( not a big shopping center, you know. ) Around 99 NT… means the hotpot is not big enough to share with others. Hehehe

Anyway I gotta wash the mushrooms first, and put the wok on the gas stove and started to boil and water. After a while I added some sauce to the soup…then the mushrooms. The little green vegetable last. Over. Hmmm…tasted ok. Well I must admit that again I am far away from a good cook…

Looking for Mami

The owner of a vegetarian restaurant told me she found this kitten in back of her kitchen. Poor little one…I took some pictures of it ( not sure what gender it is yet ) and promised to tell my students about it. See if I can help to find it a good master. Too bad my mom doesn’t agree to have a pet at home—once we had 2 cute hamsters and we cried very hard over their death…Since then we wouldn’t like to have any pets.
