After Chinese New Year, we were able to have a few days of vacation in the South of Taiwan, in Kenting. We went together with a German-Taiwanese family which we got to know at language school. Kenting about 250 miles away from Taipei and means a 6 hours dirve. The weather was great. At about 80-90 degrees fahrenheit, we were able to spend every day at the beach. Amy really enjoyed playing in the sand with the two children or swimming in the water with daddy. We also enjoyed the rest and the sun very much (apart from the sunburn ;)). Every evening there was a “night market” right outside our hotel door. On the length of about half a kilometer there were a big variety of food stalls, where we found pretty much everything to eat that you can get in Taiwan. Starting with different seafood, pigeons’ eggs , different meats, (sweet potato-) fries, fried Snickers and Twix, pizza, … , up to fried milk we have (almost) tried everything ;). Most of the food was really very, very tasty, but the rice with pig’s blood is not our favorite 😉 . We really enjoyed our time in Kenting and could, well rested and remotivated, start language school again.
