Once again the view here are supposed to be stunning. I could just about make up the boundary between land, sea and clouds in the distance. And once again I was glad I had an umbrella. I really wish the weather was a little better because I tried to explore the town a bit outside of the very touristy street but it was very gloomy and the wind keep turning my umbrella inside-out (if that can be said for an umbrella). So after 2h30 I gave up. I felt humid to the bones and tired. Back to Taipei.
La vue depuis ce petit village est supposée être splendide, mais aujourd'hui aussi il fait un temps à ne pas mettre un pied dehors
. Je pouvais tout juste apercevoir la limite entre la montagne, la mer et les nuages. La blaze. Donc aujourd'hui aussi j'étais bien contente d'avoir un parapluie. C'est quand même dommage que le temps soit si pourri parce que je suis sûre que ça aurait été super sympa d'explorer les petites rues. J'ai bien essayé de sortir de la rue principale mais mon parapluie n'arrêtait pas d'être retourné par le vent et au bout de 2h30 j'étais toute humide et crevée. J'ai laissé tomber. Retour à Taipei.
