Day 5 Taiwan - Gold digger

Raining of Au everywhere

So is day 5, fatigue in every parts of the body, whole 4 days of trip to mountain to lake to Taipei, I think is the whole year exercise quota we did, ouch. Is K! Lets fuel up with some delicious breakfast.
The legendary salted soya bean soup(咸豆浆)
This... Roti Canai + You tiao(油条)
Egg pancake with chicken floss
The salty soy bean soup is delicious, at first I was being sceptical because, who drinks savoury soy bean anyway? Is like having a salty chocolate, it should taste awful right? The soup is heavenly delicious, topped with sesame oil, chives, salty vegetable, and chill oil will wake you up full with energy!
Today is the last day tour by Mr.Wang - and what a great weather to start
Today's trip is to jiu fen(九分), one of the most rained city/state in Taiwan. When we reached the Yeh Liu Geopark, our natures pop, talk to the locals. One shocking factor is, they told us here has been raining for 9 days. 9 DAYS!!! *faint*

Seas of umbrella
Me : Is raining bro, bring the umbrella
Lim la la : Is k, my jacket are water proof
Here's the result, meditating 
Is really strong wind
The wind is so strong that, the siren was alarmed, told us the leave the area. By the time we walk back, the rain stops. *I don't want to comment on this*

Hectic morning need a hectic lunch, local seafood!

I don't know what they choose, I just sit back and relax and wait for the food to be delivered
Pig's small intestine
Shrimp
Deep Fried eel
They call it dragon ball, we call it deep fried fish eye ball - and it is good!
Salt and pepper seasoned deep fried fish
Ok the seafood is bad, really. Malaysia has much better seafood than Taiwan. Malaysia Boleh!

The first gold we gonna experience is this golden waterfall(黄金瀑布).

Golden waterfall in Jiu Fen
Based on my knowledge, it is full with sulphur since above is the mine + gold factory, hence the explanation of the golden-ish  color water.
Here's a series of gold :


Fine Gold
Mercury Gold
Liquid Mercury Gold
Mercury
Oscar?



Ancient typing machine
Morse code thingy





Wall made with Gold!






The price for this piece of gold
They actually let me touch and steal this gold, if you manage to bring it home. :)
