We all stayed at the Le Meridien in Taipei which was one of the newest, contemporary and technologically-advanced hotels there.

While the rooms were smaller than usual and it was not particulary child-friendly, there were automated Toto toilets, L’Occitane bath products, and Nespresso espresso maker (which GongGong and PoPo appreciated). The breakfast which was included was a Jean George buffet which featured very authentic French-style baked pasteries, fresh watermelon juice and raisins dried on the vine.

The best part about staying at the Le Meridien was the view of Taipei 101 on New Year’s Eve. Granted, I was long asleep by then, but Mommy & Daddy enjoyed the views of Taipei 101 from a suite Uncle Dedo & Aunt Holly reserved for the New Year’s Eve bash. The views couldn’t have been better and the fireworks were supposedly even more spectacular this year due to Taiwan’s 100-year history.
100…ROC!

While the others were celebrating New Year’s Eve, I was sleeping on the floor of my Le Meridien room. Yes, I had to sleep on the floor because they ran out of cribs due to the hotel selling out at full capacity on New Year’s Eve.

I wonder how many years it will be before I’ll be able to stay up until midnight to ring in the New Year?
