Last night at Taiwan ):
Hi dear readers!
Today's post will be about our final day in Taiwan, the end of JJCSB's first ever overseas trip. After our breakfast at the hotel, we set-off to visit Anping Tree House, an architecture whose lng history has allowed it to become one with nature, with trees growing inside it and roots covering its walls. Our bandmate certainly had a wonderful time photo-taking in such a scenic location.
 
Next up, we visited the Ten Drum Cultural Village, originally an abondaoned sugar factory. However, with their member's creativity and determination, they have successfully converted the factory, producing one indoor concert hall, one outdoor concert platform, workshops to produce drums, classrooms for drum lessons, and even a temple dedicated to their God of Drums!
 
   
Always dedicated to showcase the ancient art of chinese drums, our guide held basic drum lessons with us. Naturally, we did well, much to the guide's pleasant surprise. Of course, the visit wouldn't be complete without a performance by the members looking at their breathtaking display of virtuosity at the chinese drums. I'm sure that they have definitely motivated us to work even harder and to strive for greater heights in our own playing.
After our lunch, at the village, we prepared ourselves for the long journey back to Taipei. Although the journey might be tiring, nevertheless, we were all excited to do some last minute shopping at another Taipei Night Market.
It was a mad rush to buy everything and anything, to bring back a little part of Taiwan to remind us of the wonderful time we spent there.
Although we definitely do not want the shopping to nd, it was still inevitable that we would hve to go back to the hotel. Now, we are all back at our hotel rooms, enjoying our last night in Taiwan.
