7.12 Phoenix tea garden & Bamboola Taiwan & Sitou


Today the schedule has some changes because of the coming typhoon.
In the morning, we take a walk in the tea garden. There are many different tea tree in this garden but to me, they look so alike that I think they are all same. The tea garden is not a very big area or maybe we just visit a small part of the garden. There is a small trail in the garden from which we can see the Jiji town. After the walk, we come back to the tea room to learn how to make tea. It's so complicated that I don't want to write all the details. Basically there are two small cups for each person, one is for smell and another one is for drink. When we make tea, the first pot of water is not for drink but to clean the tea leaf. And we drink from the second time. We try Oolong tea and Oriental beauty, I think the later one is better.
After tea time, we head to Bamboola Taiwan, a bamboo product company. The boss show us some boxes made and designed by himself . And each box has a gear to open the box. It's so well designed that we can't find the way to open it. And the products are also very good and expensive.
After saying goodbye to the Bamboola, we directly head to Sitou. It's another long way. And in Sitou we are told that the typhoon will come soon and we have to stay in the hotel until the typhoon is over. That night, the wind begin to blow but everything is ok and I also have a good sleep.
