Beach Day

This past weekend I biked to one of my favorite spots.  It's on a hiking/bike trail about 30 minutes away.  There's a hidden pond there with a scenic bridge, like out of The Secret Garden or something.

Afterwards, I went to a favorite beach spot that doesn't have very many people.

The tide was soooo far out that my first thought was TSUNAMI!!! THIS IS IT!!!! Because really, I would be hopelessly dead if there was a tsunami...no one would even know I was there and I'd have nowhere to run haha.  Plus I saw that movie, The Impossible, which completely terrified me.  

Alas, it was obviously not a tsunami, just a really low tide.

Plus the locals were goin' fishin!

Far off in the distance I saw a bunch of kite surfers and decided to walk down and watch.  It was really awesome and seemed like a perfect day.  One guy from Japan noticed I was taking pictures and stopped by on his board and introduced himself and invited me to learn (HA!).  

I got some awesome pictures though.

"Beam me up Scotty!"

The sunset that night.

Taiwan really is a beautiful place.

This particular day was great too because it was the first sunny day after a week of non-stop rain.
