Date: 17 January 2014 Friday

08:00 AM Shanpu Hot Spring BnB

I woke up early at 8 AM to collect our breakfast from the door. Sandwiches and warm soya milk were served door to door.

Breakfast was unexpectedly good though it was simple.

We packed and left the hotel at 10:30 AM. There was not enough time for us to have another round of hot bath :(.

I came across Baimi Clogs Museum from one of the travel blogs while planning our itinerary.

We joined the tour at a fee of $150 TWD per person.

We were introduced to the history of clogs making and also the different types of clogs.

Giant clogs

Wood blocks for the clogs

Colourful clogs for kids

Crossed over to the other building …

Design & make our own mini clogs!

After all the hard work…

Stopped and had a snack before leaving Baimi.

15:30 PM Where were we?

I had no idea where we were. We were on our way towards Hualien and the bumpy roads made JX sick. We stopped the car for a short rest at a random place and had lunch.

I loved R’s expression here.
