Bob likes to walk one hour to the bottom of Elephant Mountain and climb the 1,145 steps to the top for exercise. At the top there is beautiful view of Taipei; and Taipei 101, the tallest building in the city. When Taipei 101 was built it was the tallest building in the world. Bob has wanted me to go and see the view, but it has been summer time and the heat was giving me an excuse for not going with him. But now it is the middle of September, and my opportunity has arrived. So on our "P" day, September 16th we first rode the bus to bottom of Elephant Mountain ( needed to conserve my energy for the steps). |
