Overnight Stay at Danshui (Part 1)

Craig's poor overworked parents thought that it might be a good idea to spend one night away from home. They decided to travel by MRT up to Danshui on the north coast.

They had been there before.

The MRT was very crowded because they hit the rush hour that occurs in Taipei at around 9:30pm-10:30pm when the shops close.


It was close to 11:00pm when they finally arrived. Still pictures can't show it but it was very windy.


The view from the room directly across the river was nice.


And the view upriver looked pretty good, too.


Just before midnight, the FTV English News came on and Craig was still awake!! That's very, very late for him.


He finally fell asleep around 1:00am!!!


While he slept, his parents enjoyed a nice hot bath in the huge bathtub beside a huge picture window. The colour in this picture is a bit funny because the water didn't look so yellow in real life.
