Back in Taipei





We are back in Taipei. On the way we stopped at an ancient Taoist temple and had lunch in a wonderful carnival-like atmosphere. Today we have spent the day at the Taipei Zoo and gondola. The gondola takes one up the mountain to many tea houses from which one has a beautiful view of the Taipei Basin. Many students had tea prepared the traditional way. This was a beautiful way to spend couple of hours. This evening we will be traveling to Tamsui, which is one of the first ports to which foreigners had access. The Dutch East India Company being one in the early 17th century. There is an "old street" night market there and we will eat dinner on our own. The review of our concert has been posted on the WASBE web site: www.wasbe.org.
