Taiwan 2nd Day : Qingjing and Gaomei Wetlands

 I researched and researched for the 2nd day activity to have this done DIY but it was just too hard in this area. Bus are not frequent and what if it rains? Decided best to get KLOOK tour instead with Qingjing and Gaomei Wetlands together.

Took our breakfast at MWD near our hotel. It was cheap and delicious. I am not a fan of sausage but for some reason I really liked the sausages in Taiwan. The bread is so good as well. This is like 115 NTD.

We were the 1st to be picked up at our hotel at 8am and got the others along the way to our 1st stop -Qingjing Farm. 

An hour and a half later, we had our bladder break at the gas station and saw these flowering trees across the street. Not sure if these were Cherry Blossoms though. 

Qingjing Farm

It was already at 10:30 AM when we are inside the Qingjing Farm. Not expecting anything except for the sheep of course but we were greeted with a line of Cherry Blossoms. 

Finally caught Shaun's family. They were muddy though given the rain

amazing view of the mountains from here

We just went down the trail till we saw this sign. At the left side is the Equestrian show, we were not really interested and left during the show and just caught some acts before it ended.

then it rained a little

We exited the farm and walked across the street to start the Skywalk. Timecheck :11:40 AM
At the entrance, we turn right to reach the Carton King at the end, this is where we will meet our tour driver so he can take us to our lunch.

the end of our Skywalk 

Tour Driver took us to our lunch which is kind of expensive. It was 2480 NTD for the five of us. The other 3 in the group is family so they were seated in a different table. Meal was decent, I liked the Pork liver steak so much I had like 3 or 4 slices but just when we were so full the main dish was served.  I cannot  for the love of God imagined chicken be served with its head and feet.hahahha.

found this Sakura tree just outside the resto

 It was foggy then when we went back to Qingjing to watch the Sheep Show.

then came to the part where it rained and could no longer see what's being done, so we head out to the meeting place ahead of the other people watching the show.

Tour driver informed us we are heading down to Gaomei. It was like a 2hr drive. There was no sunset at that time but the mood is giving. 

Left Gaomei at 6:30 PM and arrived in Taichung at 7:30 PM. Initially , we planned to drop by at the night market. Due to exhaustion and also need to wake up early for the Sun Moon lake tour, we opted to be dropped at our hotel instead.
