SOC: Feeling like Heaven on Earth
This week’s vacation to Taiwan was both relaxing and exhausting. Relaxing as we get to plan our own schedule and choose the places which we want to visit. Exhausting for me as it’s no joke walking/ climbing up and down stairs for 2-3 hours straight carrying Tiger girl in her carrier. Even though she does come down and walk besides us but at the speed that she walks it is equally tiring having to hold on to her and make sure she doesn’t trip while walking.
Sun Moon Lake was the first place we visited after checking into our hotel. The scenery was spectacular as you can see above. It does feel like time has stood still and you feel serene and rested just being at the place. If only we had such scenery in our backyard.

Wow! This is indeed awe-inspiring … a serene spot for meditation. Heaven on earth indeed!

Very beautiful! I hope you got to take turns with Tiger girl.

I feel serene just from looking at the picture. What a beautiful lake.

My brother in law went to Taiwan to teach English four years ago, and since has found a wife, had a child, another on the way and fell in love with the country. Someday we hope to visit. With a view like that, hopefully soon we can!

@Jackie,
Taiwan is really a very lovely country. It’s on the list of places to stay when we retire in the future.

Thumbs up to both your effort and TIger girl. It is extremely exhausting for both of you to climb/walk up and down stairs for 2-3 hrs.
It’s great that Tiger girl enjoys her trip. I dare not bring my boys for sceneric trip. I am afraid they will feel bored
