On the go

On the last Friday, one of my roommates and I went to National Taiwan Museum, Taiwan storyland, and Lunshan Temple. We visited there for assignments. Although it was for homework, it was worth visiting and sightseeing. National Taiwan Museum was now exhibiting “The Life of Centennial Taiwan” and “The Photos Exhibition of the sea” underground, "Woolly Mammoth" on the first floor, and “Czeth Gems” on the second floor and so on. We spent an amount of time on old life in Taiwan. It represented a number of ancient things such as the old household equipments, clothes, traditional discs and tapes, and telephones, etc from young’s rooms to elder’s rooms. It reminded me of childhood. Something special like Vespa motorcycles which my dad used to have one, heavy and black-white TV, Da-Tong dolls and fans, 50 dollars bills is memorable.

The next was we went Taiwan storyland. Although the admission charge was a little bit expensive, the inside was interesting and full of the times of my childhood as well. I memorized when I was a child, I could see the old chatting and singing karaoke under the big tree in the park, with kids playing balls, jump ropes and hide-and-seek. I used to play hopscotch with my sister and brother in the yard. I‘d seem a poster was drawn by hand. A garbage can was made from wood. An ice shaving was made by machine which needs to turn the wheel around on the right so that the small ice can be produced. A vender shouting loud for ice or sausages was strolling on the road everywhere with the bell ringing. I still remembered now there was a vender, driving around my village once a week, selling stinky tofu and he had been selling it since I was a child. The storyland was just like a small village. There you can find things different from our present circumstances opposite to where upper story building was a modern apartment store. Finally, in the evening at 6:00, we went to Lunshan Temple. It was my first time to pick a straw for a piece of advice. After staying here for a while, we went to school.
