It was a short 4 days business trip with 2 days in Taiwan and 2 days spent traveling.
What made it a good trip?
1. I went to the subcon. At subcons, we are always treated as VIP. The pressure is over on the other side :) We were treated to bubble tea every day :)
2. It was also my first trip overseas since I had Shanna, without having to lug around my breastfeeding gear and sticking to the schedule. So, I had more time to go out and more luggage space (better for shopping of course:)).
3. Going with colleagues who 'encouraged' me to try smelly toufu and duck's tongue... great experience! Some also knew the best places to eat in town, so lots of good food.
4. No earthquake experience this time round! Hehehe.
I like Taiwan for it's food. Very good taste, variety and reasonable price. No comment on sightseeing, because although this is my second time there, I never had the time to do much sightseeing.
Inevitably I missed home too, and couldn't wait to get back to see my baby! Hubby did a great job of taking care of Shanna. I got a totally different greeting from Shanna this time when I got back - indifference. As Grandma says, perhaps she just woke up in the morning and thought the past few days without Mummy was just a dream... or it could be that she was 'mad' with me? I'll never know, I guess.

All the interesting food at the night market stall. The pile of black stuff at the front is 'pork-blood cake'.
