We got up this morning and went to the National Palace Museum, a grand museum on the scale of the Smithsonians. Saw lots of ancient Chinese artifacts and two very strange pieces that are really famous here. A piece of Jade shaped like a cabbage, and a rock that looks like a piece of meat. We wondered how the meat rock ever ended up in a museum, and gained its fame. Im sure its a great story.

We wandered the streets some more after the museum, did some shopping and hit Modern Toilet, a theme restaurant based on modern plumbing. You sit on toilets, eat and drink out of urinals and don’t know whether to laugh or be disgusted. But the ice cream and drinks we had were really good and super reasonably priced so no complaining there. Its an experience for sure.

Ended the night with some Bibim-bop, one of my favorite Korean dishes, so I’ll sleep happy tonight. Theres a incoming Typhoon this weekend, so were hoping the storms will hold off so we can go to the Aboriginal town of Wulai tomorrow.
