Not the best start to the day this morning, all of my roommates didn't wake up until a friend from another room came into our room and told us to wake up because we were 15 minutes late. The pack was hectic, but we made it. I skipped breakfast as a result, though.
We went a really big temple with a lot of statues and historical paintings. It was very Buddhist; people passing by us would say "Ami Tofu" (Buddha's Chinese name) and I felt a bit awkward in the temple since I'm not religious. We went on a boring tour through the temple (which felt more like a museum), but at least I got a lot of pretty pictures~
There were little mini-maps of the area!
Back to real-scale.
Afterwards, we went to Sun Moon Lake. Again, pretty, but it was cloudy and we didn't get to see all of its brilliance today. It's okay; I've been to Sun Moon Lake a few times already and I already have pictures of it.

Also got this huge egg tart for... quite expensive. It was good, though! It had raisins in it, which I normally wouldn't like, but it was alright in this.
We then got lunch, which was much better than the lunch yesterday. I had a few stomach pains today, but none as bad as yesterday's, and I didn't have any major digestion problems.
After lunch, we went to a tea factory... which was extremely boring. I got some pictures of the beautiful scenery though, and of the signs... though I wasn't supposed to.

I wouldn't recommend going there at all.
We went to a nearby temple that overlooked Sun Moon Lake and took some pictures. The architecture was stunning.
My friend photobombed...
People hang their wishes on the walls.
365 stairs, each one with a birthday and a little saying.
More Sun Moon.
Finally, we arrived at the hotel. Turns out by pure coincidence that I am staying in the same hotel that my friend is as well (the one that was at OCAC with me two years ago). We met up and hung out with Micki to get some food at 7-eleven after I had a trip to the sauna and sweated like I were in hot yoga. It was really refreshing~
After talking to Annie, Gena, and Michelle in our room, we finally went to sleep in preparation for tomorrow!
