Woke up this morning and just wanted to roll over and do nothing for the rest of the day. It looked cold and miserable outside. BUT... our mechanic fitted the car with a new radiator to "try"for a week before paying for it. So today was the day we would have time to do that... we had to get up. Decided not to go too far as originally planned and headed to the Daken area north -east of Taichung. There are loads of scenic stops along the way. We stopped at one place that had baby pigs ( Ciro waxed lyrical about the fate of these poor piggies) Dylan enjoyed shouting at them for a bit until he spotted a ten dollar ride and then that was all he wanted.
Carried on a long and winding road to Lavender cottage which produces lavender goodies and has a large garden area to walk around in ..fun for Dylan we thought...he fell asleep in the car and stayed asleep until we got back in the car. Plan was to have lunch there until the waiter said we would ahve a 1 hour wait..uh...no thanks. The place is very popular and I guess Sunday is an especially busy day.Carried on to a place called Annies garden to have lunch...very scenic area and the food was good too. Even Dylan who has not been too happy about eating the last few days(teething..we think) ate a bit of everything and loved the tomato pasta ( we have never managed to get him to even try some before) so were very excited. The garden was nice to run around in too. All in all a good day was had and hopefully Dylan will go to bed early after having such an early nap...we'll see!
