Day of Fun!

As an extension of my birthday, this weekend Adam and I went to Janfusun Fancy World! It is an amusement park about an hour and a half from Taichung. We had a blast! The cartoon mascots of Fancy World are birds, a little glow worm, a cow, and a giant cake! Fabulous! Here are some pictures! Just click on the picture to make it bigger if you want to.

First we got on a bus to go to Fancy World. We were two of six people on the entire bus, which is quite an anomaly in Asia.

As soon as we got to Fancy World, we came face to face with the Fancy World characters themselves. Of course we had to stop for some pictures!

Here is Adam with the blue glow worm (at least we think it was a glow worm, either that or a piece of poop). His name was BoBo.

Here I am with the giant cake. Yes, it was a cake, and its name was CaCa.

From Janfusun Fanc...
This bird starting poking and molesting me. Its name was DoDo. I actually had to bend my knees to take a picture with it. There must have been a child inside of it, it was so short!

From Janfusun Fanc...
Here is the cow/bull FeFe. It must have been tired or something because it was lying on the steps. Adam and I thought it was hilarious! The two birds had pretty sweet names too, KiKi and KuKu. They all sounded like they had been named by babies - DoDo, BoBo, FeFe, CaCa, KiKi, and KuKu. WTF?

Here is the ginormous ferris wheel at Fancy World! Pretty fancy, wouldn't you say?

From Janfusun Fanc...
This was the first ride that we went on. "G-5 Diving Machine"

From Janfusun Fanc...
It was a straight drop down into a hole in the ground. We loved it!

Since the food in this country is atrocious, we had to bring our own little sack lunches. I felt like I was in elementary school again with my PB&J sandwich, juice box, potato chips, and raisins! Complete with Rice Krispie Treats for dessert, thanks to Sabra and Victoria for the birthday package!

This was a little cow next to an ice cream stand. Adam did a nice impression, tongue and all!

At this store, they had childhood bogs fun. No, not bugs, bogs.

They had a little stunt show going on as well. There was an acrobat who walked on this blue thing as it went around.

From Janfusun Fanc...
Then there were these awesome motorcycle men.

From Janfusun Fanc...
They actually both got into "the cage of death" and drove their motorcycles around it at the same time. We didn't get a picture of the girl, but then they put a girl inside the cage with them and drove around. It was pretty cool!

Here is the view from the ferris wheel. On the left is the G-5 and on the right was the other roller coaster, which was called something like, "The Floorless Roller Coaster."

Here was the log ride. Look closely and tell me what you see.

From Janfusun Fanc...
Oh, yes. That would be Taiwanese people wearing ponchos and raincoats on the log ride! What an idea!

From Janfusun Fanc...
I'll let you guess whether this sign was for the little boys' room or the little girls' room.

In case of emergency: 1. Push the alarm BOTTOM. 2. Hold the nozzle and out the hose. 3. Turn the valve and release the water. Any questions?

Here I am training to become an airline pilot.
