Taichung

11/16

Taichung means (tai) Taiwan (chung) middle.

We left for Taichung this morning around 10 and went to a wood sculpture museum in a town on the way. There was old work and contemporary. We couldn't take pictures inside.

Silvia had made reservations for a hotel called The Splendor. It is a older place, but comfortable, and with another spread for breakfast. We had eaten a substantial lunch, so we had a snack and shopped in a Sogo department store across the street. Garrett had clothes to wash down in the coin laundry for hotel guests so he did that while Susan and I read.
