Crabs & Toilets

The Wetlands of Taichung, Taiwan: heavy mud, water, crabs and energy wind mills.

I have over 10 pictures of me trying to capture the 'jump' pose.  This was the best one...

And then Tanier gets 10 for 10 awesome photos...darn those high school cheerleader moves! 

Ma and Pa Lee escorted us to the Wetlands. (er...rather Brother and Sister Lee, aren't they adorable?)

These wetlands were hardly the beach but it had the ambiance of one.

I could've watched the hundreds of thousands of fiddler crabs jump in and out of their hiding places all day long.

Reflection from the slushy Wetland.

I gained at least 10 lbs. today and it was TOTALLY worth it.  I ate so much: Pork/Beef Asian Cakes, Dumplings, Noodles, Chinese Burritos, Bing, Coconut Curry, more Soup, and Chocolate ice cream to name a few.

Yet another Bing, I love these!  They're like Asian shaved ice on crack!  I dare you to guess what's in this one, but no prize this time!  However I'm scheming fun prizes for the upcoming quizzes, so brace yourselves!

Welcome to the Modern Toilet!  Warning: images below may make you lose your lunch.  Asians must love themed restaurants but they took this idea too far, if you ask me.  

Easing you into it..here's Hanna and I fake KTVing (karaoke) to our shower head that was connected to our bathtub table. 

Here was a table by us.  Sink basin table with toilets...weird but fun right?

They had the most glamorous toilet seats I've ever seen.

I ordered the Thai Coconut Chicken Curry and despite the presentation, it was the best Thai food I've found so far.

This was Modern Toilets worst/most ingenious idea..  I will forever remember the chocolate poo ice cream I ate out of an Asian squatter in Taichung, Taiwan.  Try as I may to forget this happened, I don't think I could.  Now THAT'S hard core marketing at its best!

And this is where they went too far.  Take a serious look at this cardboard cut out: there's feces on the floor, some of its coming out of the character, there's a nasty plunger on 'my' head, and it's either a dude with pink polka-dotted underwear OR a girl with hairy legs and short hair.  And what's with the black sticker on 'my' bum and why am I holding turd on a stick?

September Celebration Quiz starts tomorrow...stay tuned!
