After spending the morning at the CKS Memorial, and the early afternoon exploring a puppet museum, Sam and I then went to the world's tallest building!! Taipei 101.
We got to ride the world's fastest elevator--something like 84 floors in about half a minute! At it's fastest it goes 28 miles per hour--that is FAST for an elevator!!
And, we also saw one of the three dampers that help keep the building stable--it just happens to the world's largest damper.
Sam and I had a BLAST that afternoon. We just enjoyed the scenery, enjoyed each other, and enjoyed being silly.
Do you know why it is called Taipei 101? Well, because it has 101 stories/floors. So, we started a list of 101 things we did in the world's tallest building. But, uh, we didn't write it down, so I have no idea what was on our list now. However, we had tons of fun making the list! :)
Oh, and just FYI, I did eat the world's best (at least in my opinion) green tea ice cream in the world's tallest building. :) It was DELICIOUS!! Just to let you know I think I would choose green tea ice cream over chocolate!! It is so good!!
BTW, there are some awesome photos of 'Taipei One-oh-One" on flickr.
