This cold, overcast afternoon found us at the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts 國立臺灣美術館 in Taichung 台中 for the purposes of 1:) letting Amber ride her new bike around the museum grounds; and 2:) to take her to the exhibit on Hans Christian Andersen. We shouldn't have bothered because 1:) the weather was too chilly; and 2:) "The Great Master of Fairy Tales: the Hans C. Andersen Bicentenary Exhibition"was a waste of NT580 ($20/¥1660). The displays were uninteresting, the animation was poorly drawn and the excerpts from stories were too brief. I was interested in seeing how dark some of Andersen's fairy tales could be (especially "The Shadow"), but, overall, the exhibit could have been presented in a much more entertaining and educational manner. My daughter, at least, enjoyed running around outside, the chill be damned.
