All Done

After about 6 hours they are all done and the lobby is cleaned up.

Details

The orchids have short stems so to compensate, they are fixed to bamboo rods to be used in the arrangements.

Getting there

This was taken 90 minutes after the first picture. This is an all day process.

It's Monday...

And that means it's is time to change out the enormous flower display in the lobby. Apparently, this is done each week.

Night Market

The fruit here is amazing! Here is a fruit stand from the night market we visited on Sunday. I don't even know what some of the fruit here is!

Fish or Fowl?

From the restaurant we want to on Sunday night.

Taking a Walk

Decided to visit Taipei 101 during the afternoon. There were tons of people walking their pint-sized pets. All of them were some form of dog, except for this guy.

Back in Taipei

This is the fiuntain/flower arrangement in the lobby of the hotel. Even of you just took the flower portion, it's still taller than I am!

Statue of...

A chicken or a flame? We couldn't decide and thought maybe it changed based on where you stood and looked at it.

Adventure Time?

This was on one entire wall of the building. It looks like the cartoon Adventure Time. I must be getting old if this is considered "fine art." :)

Before we went to Taipei, we spent time in Taichung. One evening we walked around the grounds of their Fine Arts Museum. It was lovely, there was music piped in to accompany you was you enjoyed the gardens.
