Day 8 - Tainan



Took a car from Kaohsiung to Tainan in the morning. It has been hot and humid here in southern Taiwan. Taipei on the other hand was cool and humid. I tried to hand wash some clothes and 3 days later they were still wet.
We visited a few temples including the Lady Linshui's Temple. Lady Linshui protects children, and there were many families with their babies and children coming and going. On each side of the temple are little glass vaults with "assistant" to help the Lady. 36 in total (3 for each month).



We also came across another celebration/parade. Back at the Landis Hotel we asked what the parade was about. We were told "probably some god's birthday, would have to check the calendar, happens all of the time."

Tomorrow morning we go to St Lucy's and get Yu-Lin! We are all very exited. It's going to be hard sleeping tonight!
