Formosa Tour de l'Île
Aproveitei o fim de semana grande para dar uma volta pela ilha de Taiwan.
Comecei aqui na terra, cidade de Tainan, onde ocorre o principal evento do festival das lanternas (do 23 Fev. a 6 de Mar.).
Tainan Lantern Festival
Segui para Kaoshiung para apanhar o comboio para Taitung, no sudeste de Taiwan.
Taitung Coast
A costa de leste de Taiwan e' bastante montanhosa e cheia de termas de aguas quentes:
Jhihben Hot Springs
De Taitung segui para norte, para Hualien, parque nacional onde residem tribos de nativos de Taiwan.
De Hualien segui para Taipei, pela rota considerada a mais picturesca da ilha de Taiwan.
Hualien Coast
Acabei o fim de semana a rir em Taipei com uma comedia de Singapura, o filme
Rice Rhapsody:
Rice Rhapsody looks into the delicate art of making Hainan chicken rice and mother-son relationships. The film can be seen as a twist on Ang Lee's Eat Drink Man Woman and The Wedding Banquet.
Jen (Silvia Chang), a mother of three sons, is an expert at making Hainan chicken rice and uses her mother's secret recipe to open a restaurant and raise her children alone after being abandoned by her husband 12 years earlier.
Jen's older sons, Daniel and Harry, are gay, causing Jen to worry whether she will have grandchildren if her third son, Leo, turns out to be gay too.
She and her best friend, Kim Chui (Martin Yan, a famous TV chef) devise a plan to keep Leo straight by bringing a French exchange student to live with them. Leo develops a strange but intriguing relationship with the French girl named Sabine, which greatly pleases Jen.
