The remainder of my days in Taiwan were just spent eating, shopping, and hanging out with my family. I also slept a good amount because no trip to Asia is complete without my getting sick. Nothing so debilitating as I've had in the past, but I'm still getting over this cold.
We also fulfilled one of Mom's life-long wishes: to stay in the Grand Hotel in Taipei. It is the only hotel in true Chinese palace style, albeit definitely past its former glory (there was maybe a 10% occupancy.) It's one of the more recognizable landmarks of Taiwan and offers a great view of Taipei. We had a fancy dinner at the palace museum then the whole gang came to check out our room and the view from our balcony.
