So YOU, our family and friends, can follow our adventures. We'll do our best to keep you updated with the latest news and anecdotes, and to post new pictures, videos, and slideshows.

Heping (Peace Island)
During our visit to nearby Keelung we visited one of the most popular points on the island , a place called Yeliu. Yeliu is along Taiwan's northern coast and is a sea park filled with unique rock formations. Unfortunately it was also filled with about a million Mainland Chinese tourists and locals which lessened the appeal of a stroll along the coast...even in the fog and mist. SO instead we drove up the coast about 10 KM to Peace Island ..just a 50 meter bridge away from the mainland... which has many of the same interesting formations with 95% less people. We had a nice stroll and even saw a puffer fish in the tidal pools. Here are some pictures
