We found a secret den to stay for the night…and for the rest of the trip
![hotel-02](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/hotel-02.jpg?w=696&h=928)
Oh look what we’ve got over here, a book on cats! We love cats 🙂

The following day we went to Guang Ming San mountain. Very COLD up there.
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-02.jpg?w=696&h=157)
Enjoying the view as we walked
![qms-06](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-06.jpg?w=696&h=156)
Where is that smoke coming from?
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-03a.jpg?w=696)
Where should we go next?
![qms-03b](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-03b.jpg?w=696&h=522)
This is how we discussed our next move

Found a good corner to do a group jump!
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-09.jpg?w=696&h=463)
We took a really long break!
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-11.jpg?w=696)
Watching the girls taking selfies…
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-16.jpg?w=696&h=463)
Bluemango were here.
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-18.jpg?w=696&h=463)
We passed by beautiful cherry blossom trees along the way
![qms-19](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-19.jpg?w=696&h=928)
What started as a single photo session…
![qms-21](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-21.jpg?w=696&h=522)
…soon turned into a paparazzi
![qms-22](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-22.jpg?w=696&h=522)
It all started with this guy.
![qms-23](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-23.jpg?w=696&h=928)
The girls followed suit almost immediately.

Monkey boy

![qms-31](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-31.jpg?w=696&h=522)
Unspoken words…
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-32.jpg?w=696)
Made it to the other side in one piece!
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-33.jpg?w=696&h=463)
Still working on it…

Met a cute fury friend.
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-35.jpg?w=696&h=463)
We ended up at a park.
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-36.jpg?w=696&h=463)
While the girls did a squat…
![qms-30](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-30.jpg?w=696&h=928)
This boy did his own stunt. On the rocks.
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/qms-39.jpg?w=696&h=463)

But first a quick stop for good food!
![mk-01](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/mk-01.jpg?w=696&h=928)

![mk-05](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/mk-05.jpg?w=696&h=522)
Climbing higher and higher…
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/mk-08.jpg?w=696)
Finally arrived on the other side

![mk-16](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/mk-16.jpg?w=696&h=522)
Guess what those things are…
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/mk-17.jpg?w=696&h=463)
Walked for a bit while waiting for lunch to be served
![mk-18](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/mk-18.jpg?w=696&h=522)

We took public transport to town

Taipei 101 building 🙂
![street-07](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/street-07.jpg?w=696&h=522)
Bike for rent is cool!
![street-04](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/street-04.jpg?w=696&h=522)
Don’t think that one is for rent…
![SONY DSC](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/street-05.jpg?w=696&h=463)
Selfies!

Don’t forget the Hello Kitty cafe…
![hk-02](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/hk-02.jpg?w=696&h=522)
It’s worth the visit if you’re a big fan!

![cc-06](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/cc-06.jpg?w=696&h=522)
You get to dine and pet the cats at the same time
![cc-07](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/cc-07.jpg?w=696&h=522)
We’ve got her attention alright 🙂
![cc-08](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/cc-08.jpg?w=696&h=522)
Thought we gonna start together… guess kitty’s too hungry to care!
![cc-09](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/cc-09.jpg?w=696&h=522)
So.. we’ve got 2 entertainers in the house!

We all get different kitty designs on our coffee 🙂

We went to a traditional tea house the following day
![th-02](https://bluemangocommunications.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/th-02.jpg?w=696&h=214)
