Beach was not overcrowded and had a minimal crowd which makes it perfect for a weekend escape.




Taiwan is a beautiful country.

Marathon in the NTHU

Tomo, Kevin and Tetsuya joined the marathon running around the NTHU campus.
The weather was rainy but cool temperature was good to run. We got a towel!

Taipei Zoo

Tetsuya went to Taipei Zoo.
We can see a lot of animals including bears, elephants, pandas, peafowls, gorillas, koalas, and Taiwanese endemic species there.
This is the inside of the huge birdcage. Birds do not mind getting close to humans.
My brave baby was not afraid of kicking the bear! The ticket of Taipei Zoo is not expensive. They have very wide area and many kinds of animals!
