BIKE TRIP! - TAIWANESE STYLE!

On this lovely mini-vacation...(a 5 day weekend!)...we've all definitely kept busy!! Here are the highlights from yesterday's bike trip! We headed north an hour or so - near Taichung - to a place for renting bikes and riding on paths!!

Our van driver - JUDY!!! Gotta lover her - always spunky and sharing a laugh! She's admitted herself - she's CRAZY!

It was a beautiful day out - perfect for biking...

However, there may have been a few rocky points - biking a few hundred feet to find a tunnel that was blocked of, so - we walked in....and took a picture!



On to continue biking to another bridge that was closed due to its "being slanted,"

biking to another bridge that was apparently - not even there (though I never actually made it to that point because my flat tire kept me back on the path, only to be re-greeted by those who actually found the missing bridge), and then continuing on by going off-roading through the city to find this Hakka Museum...which we found was closed once we finally made it there! HAHA!

So - we headed back - and took a pit stop at a Goat farm (RANDOM!) and fed some goats....haha! Who are we?

Overall - a GREAT time! The series of unfortunate events added a funny/ light hearted laughing point to the whole trip : ) You never know what to expect when going on day trips in Taiwan - and ya gotta love it! As they say in Taiwan: hao shao! - "good laugh"

Best of all, it was a chance to be in fellowship with some of the Taiwanese and American teachers from Concordia! Unending blessings ; )
