Joseph, Marco, Maria, and I packed a picnic lunch today and took off in the canoe for Tao Hua Island, a short paddle from our place. At the island, we tied up the boat, ate our turkey sandwiches, then took off for some exploring on foot.
We discoved quite a surprising collection of gardens, footpaths, roadways, and buildings on the island. On the small section of the island that we explored, we were very interested to see how developed and manicured the area was. There are quite a few buildings, one of which looked like a spa or a restaurant, though there was nobody around. We did see a few tourist-looking people from a distance. There must be a boat trip you can take to visit the island. It certainly seemed ready to receive visitors.
The kids enjoyed walking along the shore, climbing the Tai Hu rocks and exploring the lookout tower. We will definitely have to go back and explore some more. It made for a great Saturday afternoon activity.
