SiChuan MaLa Hot Pot
Lao SiChuan 老四川
Kaohsiung City
Last Visited: Oct 2009
Lao SiChuan which just relocated a month ago in Kaohsiung City has been receiving a rather good response from the diners. If you have not made any prior appointment, you would have to wait for atleast 45min to an hour. I decided to check out what is so special about this restaurant.
Mid Autumn Festival
Kaohsiung County
Our biker group had a small BBQ party to celebrate the Mid Autumn Festival also known as the Moon Festival or Zhongqiu Festival. This year festival was hindered by the coming Typhoon so the celebration was made simple. Most families in Taiwan would celebrate the festival by having BBQ. It is said that one this day the Moon will be full but I only managed to get a 2 sec glimpse as it was covered by the rain clouds.
Dongguang Fishery Port
Pingtung County
I found this fishery port last 2 years while visiting Kenting and since then I have been returning to this port to get fresh seafood supply. Most of the time when I was there, I was not able to see the Tuna catch and auction because the wet market would only begin around 4pm and by then the auction center would have ended. So this time I was there early before noon and managed to get a glimpse of Tuna auction in action but on the other hand my fresh seafood supplies was short, only a handful of fresh seafood stall was opened.
Kenting September Break
Last Visited 19 Sep 2009
I was dying for another break, the city life is wearing me down each day. I needed SUN, SAND and Sea!! But I prefer to go on a less crowded days so I waited till the school break in Taiwan is over. We drove straight down to the last campsite, DaYuanShan Camp 大圓山露營區 when my kids was here in June after cycling 120km from Kaohsiung. We spent 4 days camping at the same spot. The weather was rather interesting, it was humid on the first day, second and third days was raining and finally sunshine on the last day.
Nei Shi Waterfall 內獅瀑布
Pingtung CountyThe road to Nei Shi Waterfall is not too smooth as most of the road were damaged by the last Typhoon. However we managed to drive in till 2km before the waterfall and we hiked the remaining distance.
The hike was not too difficult but when it started to rain it made the path pretty slippery. The terrian around the waterfall are rocky, the only flat ground you can find is at the viewing area.
