JK, ML, and I were all patiently sitting on a bench about 5 feet away, but we were never found by the seeker.



Unintentionally scheduled Taiwan for the same time as Dragon Boat, which is a National Holiday here. Long weekend for everyone. No hotels or hostels available. Catholic church was the only option. Our second tatami experience–first in Taiwan anyway.


It was a scary 3 days cruising Taiwan’s East coast. Thanks to J.K.’s awesome driving amongst the crazy Taiwanese, we made it back safe and sound!


Peking Duck Pizza. Hoisin sauce in lieu of tomato sauce. We ordered a whole pizza. Don’t do it!
