An early early morning, a breakfast of french fries and other assorted foods, another bumpy bus ride.
First stop: Yilan Center for Traditional Arts. Mostly a really huge gift shop, but I did see some cool things!
Would I pay to go again? Eehh. But it was interesting to see once. We had Italian (??) for lunch - very good though. My dessert was mango cake!
What we did after all this was probably one of my favorite things we've done the whole trip. We got to bike through the tea plantations in Pinglin! It was so beautiful and hilly - sharp curves meant near-death for me many times. Christian and I went way faster than anyone else and thought we were lost for a while in a jungle full of angry bug sounds. It all ended up fine, though. I love love love bike riding!
This little girl absolutely killed everyone else at playin' hoop: future Olympian, no doubt. A long bus ride later, we were back at home base, reeking of sweat and ready for our spa-quality showers. A dinner at Heineken (what we called the restaurant across from our hotel) and it was time to hit the night market!

See the tea?
