Taiwan -- Day 1&2 : Fun in Mu Zha

Standard Taiwan breakfast----Ham Cheese Crepe + Milk Tea
Actually, the trip to Taiwan wasn't just about traveling... Coz my parents have a lot of friends there, so we visited them as well... That's why although we arrived by plane in the afternoon the first day, there's nothing much for me to post or write about... 
The 2nd day we went to Taipei Zoo and Maokong Gondola, both in Mu Zha. One of the funnest day~~
Taipei Zoo is very VERY big...We couldn't even finish the whole round, we just walked half of it and took a bus to Maokong Gondola. We just went to see koalas, pandas and penguins, all three specialties of the zoo. And of course, since the penguins are at the furthest corner of the zoo, we past quite a lot of animals on the way, such as rainforest animals, desert animals, African animals and Mediterranean animals on the way. So yeah, quite fun~
-- Oooh! I tripped! --
Maokong Gondola is basically cable cars carrying you up hills. It was cool all the same, but not scary at all. It was pretty cold inside though, as wind enter through small windows. We didn't spend much time at the terminal station (the highest station, Maokong), as we came mainly just to experience the cable cars, which were completely different from the Penang Hill type. We only ride in the normal cabins, a decision I now regret, because the 'Eye of Maokong Gondola', or rather crystal cabins, with see through floors, seemed even more fun.
Anyway, photos.
The view.

Oh yeah, just one more thing. If you see a clear photo but the people inside it is like, translucent, don't be afraid, it's not a supernatural thingy... it's just that my camera has a function that takes three snapshots together and combines it into one so that it's clearer... But it seems to have the opposite effect with moving people. =.=
