Taiwan

On our way home we stopped by Taiwan so Mr. Kungfuyankee could show us Taiwan, where he served his LDS mission.
It was a beautiful country. It reminded me of a ghetto California, which my husband found offensive. It has the climate of California, an Asian influence but was very western, the people were nice and food was fabulous.
Night markets were unlike any I have been in. They sold a few souvenirs but mostly sold food and had cheap carnival games.
Taiwan is what China could have and should have been if the communist government hadn't taken over and stolen it's riches and citizens hope. I hope that one day China can enjoy the beautiful blue skies, freedom and prosperity Taiwan enjoys.

Buddhist Temple. Temples in Taiwan are on every
street. They are beautiful and ornate

In China and Taiwan dragons are benevolent
