The day before yesterday, I took Carla to the National Palace Museum. To help expand her circle of friends in Taiwan, I invited three former students, Chi-peng (王繼蓬), Chun-da (林君達), and Yi-wen (陳儀汶), who in fall are going on to their sophomore year at NCCU to join us. And thankfully, they accepted my invitation even though it's on short notice. We had a great time at the museum. Carla seemed most interested in the bronze vessels, paintings, and calligraphy. Of course, the jade cabbage and the meat-shaped stone appealed to her. Here I'd like to thank Chi-peng, Chun-da, and Yi-wen for their generosity with their time.
We arrived around 11:00am. These photos were taken before entering the museum.
After a short visit to an exhibition room in the museum, we went to the 4th floor to have tradition Chinese food for lunch. This photo was taken after lunch.
After the second round of visit to the museum.
After the visit to the museum in the late afternoon, Carla and I went to Chiang Kai-shek's Memorial Hall.
On the way to the Memorial Hall, Carla told me the blue-and-white structures there seemed to hold a special attraction for her.
