Tainan Vacation Pictures

Tainan (former capital, roommate's hometown) 1/1 to 1/2
Companion: Yvonne

First picture of the day. Me on a bridge in Tainan. Lunch is on the other side, but . . . there is a long line! We ate some shrimp chips to keep us alive and sane.

A very crowded street. Why? It's famous, that's why. Our stop after lunch. I picked up some gifts. (My height came in handy for snapping this pic. I was on the crest of a hill too.)

A tree house. Yvonne said that and I got excited. But she said it was just a tree and a house that had become completely attached to each other. Not like a come-play-in-this-awesome-house-in-my-tree tree house. Bummer.

Yvonne. I really like this picture of her.

A fort. I forget the details . . . it's old. . . great view from the watchtower. . . might have been used by the British merchants . . . (it's all coming back to me know)

A house. Again, I've forgotten the details. I have the entrance tickets with a summary at home. . . and I'm in the office.

Our early-morning stop. A famous banyan tree at the university by Yvonne's house. We rode bikes there (she has 2 in Tainan and 1 in our apt.)

We visited a famous night market and it was SO crowded. We were all bumping and shuffling together. There were many times that I just laughed. Nothing else to do! I couldn't move and neither could anyone around me. Other people laughed too. Yvonne did. I snapped a picture with her camera...I'll put it on later.
