Little less jet lagged. We took the subway to the end of the line, then hopped into a taxi to Wulai. Wulai is an “aboriginal” town in the mountains 45 minutes outside of Taipei. The original Taiwanese aka Hakka came from the South Pacific, not China. Wulai is known for it’s hot springs. The water in the river was really hot. You could make tea in it. We took a small “log car train” to the Wulai Falls (the highest waterfall in Northern Taiwan), then back into the town for an aboriginal meal. We ordered wild boar and rice cooked in bamboo shoots. The fried bees and salted raw pork which sits on the shelves “stewing” was more adventurous then we could manage.

What?!?!? No bees and raw pork? Why, that's what you eat at home, right? Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. :)
