Overnight Stay at Danshui (Part 2)

The next morning Craig slept in much later than his parents.

The wind was a bit calmer early in the morning.

The view upriver towards Taipei City was calm too.


Craig was still asleep when breakfast arrived at 9:30am.


Even though the room was nice, Craig's parents thought it was a little expensive at NT$3,500. Craig's Dad reckons that some of the other rooms that have a balcony (like the one they had last time) would have been nicer.


Craig was in a very good mood as soon as he woke up.


Craig's Mum fed him milk with a spoon. If you look closely you can see a little milk moustache.


After breakfast Craig began playing with his favourite ball. It was given to him by his cousin Bailey in Australia.

Craig can play with this ball for hours.


Not long later it was time to leave the hotel and go for a walk.


Craig's parents took turns walking with Craig but he was happiest when he could stop often to look at things on the ground. It was a very slow walk.


Lunch was eaten in a Japanese room in a nice restaurant beside the river. It was a safe place for Craig to play with his Dad.


When they decided it was time for lunch, Craig tried to help his Mum look at the menu.


Sometimes, he provided a little bit too much help.


After lunch, Craig was beginning to become tired and it was very, very windy outside. So, a quick retreat was made back to the hotel for a 3-hour rest. Craig slept peacefully for an hour and a half and then played with his ball again!


Then it was time to pose for a picture with Dad in front of the sunset.


And another picture was taken looking upriver.


Craig wanted to walk back to the MRT station. He's much more relaxed about walking now.


There was time for one last photo of Craig with his Mum before they got on the train to come home.
