Little Mountain Walk

 Hotel breakfast was nice!

Yilan and Luodong Night Market

 I'm super far behind on posting!!! After we got out of the hospital I met up with visiting Singaporean friends for a couple days and am now accompanying my mom in China!

So I'll probably be playing catch up for at least a month!!

Look at this game shop cat

Posting on mobile is so difficult. The page break isn't working so I guess this will just be a long post!

Also the photos uploaded in reverse order again...

This game shop at Luodong Night Market had two cats! Super cute. 

Before we went to the night market I wanted to go to a bread shop with this garlic cream bread I'd seen on YouTube ~

Super creamy!

It was a bit sweet and not nearly as garlicky as I'd hoped for. Nice to try still!

At the night market I got a century egg grilled stinky tofu as I'd never seen it before. 

Honestly it's not worth it haha. The century egg doesn't enhance the flavor at all and this vendor didn't grill it particularly well either to be honest. 

This is the garlic cream bread before I pulled it open:

I can't rearrange photos on mobile so everything is just going to be a mess... Sorry!

Before the night market, we went to an old street at the hotel we were staying at. It's a cultural promotion place, and there were some nice little shops but many don't allow photos. 

We also encountered some performance troupes! They cleared the street for them to perform. It was pretty cool. 

I believe they are from Japan and Korea?

There were three groups. Very cool. 

Old style buildings have beautiful artisan decorations. We don't make buildings like this any more, sadly. The arts were lost with industrialization. Though I think these could be mass-produced also 😹😹 

This was in our hotel!

And then some random street snaps from earlier in the day~

We didn't go into this shop but it was a chili shop! The two mascots outside were very... Design

Very chili

Thanks for reading!  I'll try to keep up with posting!!

It's been over a month of little downtime and I'm really feeling it 

Mama Wolfie's Birthday!

 Catching up on posts!!

Celebrated my mom's birthday with her friends!

We went to a traditional Chinese style restaurant and ate a bunch. Food photo spam incoming!!

Pokémon 30th Anniversary Pop-Up

 I am posting from the ER and mobile is a bit difficult with formatting so I hope this post turns out OK!

After the dinner in the previous post, Fruefruuuue and I went to the nearby department store where there was a Pokémon 30th Anniversary pop-up shop!

Self-Cooking Skewers Restaurant

 Last week I took my sister to a skin analysis clinic after our mom's chemotherapy treatment because she wanted some skin treatments.  Afterward we went to this skewer restaurant nearby where you can choose how cooked the skewers are!

The grill portion rotates by itself!
