Carp Week 1

Carp Week 1

June 17 (By Han-lin & Pei-ying, Group 1)

Today is June 17th, and I woke up at four o'clock in the morning.  When l look out the window and saw a wonderful sunrise, I felt very satisfied and was full of happiness.  After that, Han-lin and Pei-ying took me to the beach, and we ate delicious breakfast in Jinshan.  At the beach, I saw plenty of fish, crabs and seaweed which was washed up on the shore.  And then, Han-lin and Pei-ying took me to Tamsui Old Streets to eat our dinner, “Ah Gei.”  It's a deep fried tofu.  It is stuffed with crystal noodles and sealed with surimi.  The texture of the tofu is soft inside.  The crystal noodles inside are very smooth, tender and tasty.  We ate “ah gei” with some savory, spicy sauce.  The sauce tasted sweet.  If you come here, “ah gei” is a must-try in Tamsui!  Today is a wonderful day!  I think I will never forget these wonderful memories.

Carp just woke up in the morning.

Carp Week 1

June 19 (By Joan Huang, Group 1)

Today is June 19th.  It's an extended holiday thanks to the Dragon Boat Festival. The weather was so hot.  So I went to a store selling shaved ice with Mei-Yi, Shu-Yue, Shu-Yue's sister, and a friend.  We ordered the milk-flavored and the chocolate-flavored shaved ice.  The shaved ice tasted yummy and kept us from summer heat.  After that, we visited the famous old street in Jinshan.  The old street was filled with hundreds of tourists.  So, I was afraid that I might be separated from my friends.  The Jinshan old street is famous for delicious duck meat in a restaurant.  Many tourists come to Jinshan for the well-known duck meat.  In the late evening, we went to McDonald's and took a break there.  What a beautiful day it is!
