The Celebration of the New Year Continued in Kaohsiung, Taiwan

Tour Day 138, Cruise Day 36 – "Best of Kaohsiung & Tainan" Shore Excursion – Kaohsiung, Taiwan – Those who have been following my post–COVID blogs might know that I typically copy and paste the tour shore excursion description into my blog to give my readers some information and insight into the photos I have included. For some reason, when I tried (on multiple occasions) to call up the description for this shore excursions from the Holland America web site, I got “Error 505” or some such thing. For this blog, you’re not going to get much background as I cannot remember the names of the gardens, temples and shrines I visited and photographed. Anyway, here it is, and I hope you enjoy!
