@@sgalligan wow! 🤩 thank you so much, Sue! I appreciate your gift very much! A great surprise on Christmas Eve! Thank you so much and merry Christmas! 🎅 🌹
Thanks for trudging through the rains and showing us what we could experience in this corner of the world. I got the horrors when I saw the gigantic insect in the terrarium in the beginning of the video. Ufff! I don’t know which animal would win, wouldn’t want to think about it. I’ve had rainy days present themselves to me on holiday and I usually have these choices: catch up on sleep, take spa treatments, watch a movie in a theatre, (it’s more of an event like this for me) and have a few at the hotel bar to get the insider info of hotel and town. Or explore like you did! Not very likely though but you’re under special time constraints and obligations to your dear subscribers and members who absolutely enjoy your vlogmas series and all you present. So, thank you! Happy holidays and enjoy the relaxing, (I hope) cruise! -Nicole in NY
@@madamenicoleNY thanks so much, Nicole! HAHA I’m interested in the big bugs! You have some great options there, go to the spa 😂 vlogmas is so fun! Thank you again!
Hey Lucky!! Just look as your stairs to no where as marathon training. That was an awesome day at the zoo. Thanks for taking us along! Merry Christmas and I look forward to your cruise videos!
I can't believe you get so soaking wet and keep going. You know, you can take a break every now and then. Ask for the zooIt was beautiful, but I always feel so sorry for animals in a zoo. Can't wait to see your cruise videos.
Before I will watch your video I want to wish you a great stay on the cruise. I wish you a great Christmas together with lovely people and of course a lot of fun. Thank you for all your work for us, for all your great videos. I am enjoying it very much, seeing the world with your eyes 😅 With Christmas regards from Berlin.
THANK YOU so much for warning me about the snakes! I am so petrified of them that if I saw them I may not have finished the video. You have no idea how much h I appreciate the warning!!
Think that stair walking in the rain to be "high altitude training" for the marathon 😂😂 Zoo was interesting, nice animals there. And so many at plain sight, usually when I go to a zoo, only fraction of animals are visible, most are hiding indoor space or something... And if every animal was size of an elephant, I guess ant would win all others, they are badass insects 🐜
I heard that it will take a whole day to visit the Taipei Zoo. I don't think I can afford the time of whole day there if I visiting Taipei for 3 or 4 days. I rather tour other interesting places. But your video was nice to watch.
As I understood, there’s another entrance to the zoo at the other end of 貓空 gondola. You didn’t have to ride the gondola all the way back to get into the zoo.
Not usually a zoo fan but this looked very un-zoo like to me. Bugs and snakes-ugh. Penguins was a surprise. Just curious, was the McDonalds meal more or less than your entrance fee? Almost forgot- my favorite animal-now read it carefully- was the zee-brah😊😊
@@sgalligan it seemed more like an experience more than a zoo! I should have mentioned it but the meal was around $3.20 so just more than the $3 entrance fee 😂 zebras are the best HA
I think Ben the animals were thrilled to watch you watching them, you are such a unique spiecies! LOL You are such a thrifty Brit, good for you! Americans pay too much for everything, they need to learn from you Brits!
Taiwan is the Republic of China and the mainland is the People's Republic of China. Although they are both China, they are different countries, just like North and South Korea.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Ben! Thank you for a wonderful 2024 of videos and look forward to 2025!

Awesome zoo! I can’t believe how inexpensive it was. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
@@tannahill5129 it was great, Tanna! Thank you for coming along!
Happy Christmas dear Ben! We’re all with you in spirit. Enjoy your travels and merry, merry!

Ben, I love that zoo and your Chinese Mandarin language lessons for us😊❤
I'm glad your day got much better. I guess your climb will be a good memory.
@@carolleiter6027 great memories, Carol!
謝謝你 讓我第一次看到無人的貓空

Merry Christmas Ben! That was a great day. For a rainy day, that was spectacular❤ thanks a bunch🎄🎅🎁☃️❄️✨️💖
Thank you, Sheila! Merry Christmas! 🎅
There are many teahouses in Maokong, located in the mountains in front of and behind the snacks you see. It is about 200 meters away.
This Spring Taipei Zoo has raised the entrance fee to TWD$100 (USD$3 ), which was TWD 60 ( USD 1.84 ) last year.
Good evening, Ben ! They brought back memories ! Thanks !
@@david1234lee cheers, David!

@@brendalogan6281 there’s lots to see Brenda, I have to keep going 😂 I feel bad about the zoo too…
Hey Ben! I didn’t get an alert for this. It appeared when I was scrolling through my feed. Have a great day! Will watch in the AM EST

I would enjoy very much rainy day in taiwan . Thats very charning and peaceful....

還好你沒再走下去 不然你會走到魔法森林 🤣🤣
下雨天沒在山上喝茶真是太可惜了
Taipei zoo is wonderful. I like it even better than the world famous San Diego zoo which is about 3 hours drive from where I live.
I love anteaters😅See you cruising?😂❤
@@cattimascha1985 they are cool! I am cruising now 😁
I❤Taipei zoo
me too!

Do you think Taipei is cold in winter? Compared with Europe, America, China, Japan and South Korea?

@@stephencoutu2674 HAHA they were excited to see wild human beings 😂 I just don’t like being ripped off and America is good for that 😂
Thanks for the video Ben, reminded me that I love the wild sounds and smells of zoos. Entrance to San Antonio Zoo is $30!
@@DonaldYoung-b7x 10 times the price of this zoo, Donald! It was a great day! 😁
No karaoke in the cable car this time 😅
@@margaretjoan6148 not this time, Margaret 😂 we don’t talk about that!
In Taiwan, we say 貓熊 cos it’s a bear not a cat.
Taiwan is the Republic of China and the mainland is the People's Republic of China. Although they are both China, they are different countries, just like North and South Korea.
@@BB-yi6qn I know.
oh, I’m so disappointed you wait at McDonald’s.
No not really.
@@kamanama3671 HAHA I’m a bad person!
貓熊的影片出現時間太短
台北動物園我的印象中他是全亞洲最大的非野生動物園 交通方便乘坐大眾交通工具即可到達 動物園的動物種類非常多元 票價便宜非常的便宜 因為台北市政府把它視為一種有教育意義的社會福利 所以把票價訂得非常低 記得以前好像有國際人士脫離旅行團行程 特地跑去參觀動物園 上了新聞 花費少許的票價 就能看到貓熊 無尾熊 企鵝等 在不同氣候生存的動物 非常值得一去 旅遊行程先乘坐透明地板的纜車先瀏覽自然美好景色 整體來說是一個很棒的旅遊行程
影片主人在下雨的時候走這麼多地方，還是在聖誕節快到的時候帶給大家歡樂。結果你們不知道感恩,還說三道四，做得非常好呵呵。
