Hualian

Hualian-- I think I found my vacation spot in Taiwan! Had a wonderful trip... here are some pictures. Fall in Taiwan is really a wonderful time of year, like a summer night in California but all the time...

All the cyclists on the road remind me of my Dad! He would love the roads and scenery... although perhaps not the humidity. Maybe later in the season would be best for cycling!




This is the view from Qiuxing's temple, looking out across the pacific (at california!)

















Me at the National Park. I know it's a bad picture but I don't have many with me in them-- too busy taking the pictures myself!






The coast- looking south. I went swimming on the far side of the cove, the water was as warm as it is in Hawaii.


This is a suspension bridge crossing a large canyon. It was quite an adrenaline rush to cross, it is several hundred feet up and as you can see very narrow... and make of rope. Good fun!



















This is the view from the suspension bridge. The picture doesn't do it any justice though! Definitely a cool place. I actually ran into a group of Mormans on the other side. They're everywhere! Sorry to any Mormans reading this... I'm just kidding...
