Here's our little caravan cruising down Taiwan's Coastal Highway 2.
Steve says something's peculiar around here. Is it the rocks or is it the English usage?
Okay, yes, there are some rather unusual rock formations along the coast at Nanya. And at this moment there appear to be some rather peculiar people there too. :)
Here's Matt Sawatzky sitting on something peculiar.
Steve "ROCK Jock" Marth and James "GEO-Political" Chen take a break from their "verbal jousting" long enough to discuss the shape of this unusual rock formation. "So, James, what do you think it looks like?"
With "Gollum" on the way up the steps of "Cirith Ungol".
"What was that?" Angus gets a little spooked in the "jungle".
The "Palau brother and sister" are now seen here on the Northeast Coast of Taiwan. It's time for Taiwan's National Day and they're both decked out in red - which is the color of the national flag as well as the current mass movement to depose the president :)
Angus seems amused at something here. But he's Chinese, so I don't think he's laughing at the name of this place which to us North Americans sounds kinda' funny. It's named for the "Dragon Cave"- a large cave at the lower left of this tall cliff (behind Gareth, Steve and James).
Daniel looks pretty happy about this roadside lunch consisting of fried noodles and fish-ball soup. And check out Liz - slurp, slurp! Mmmm, good :)
Good picture of Rachel at Fulong Beach. Even more interesting when combined with Gareth's profile :)
He looks a little lost, but "Castaway" Dan gets an idea. "Hmmm... let's see, Fulong must be somewhere south/southeast of Danshui (and Brett)."
At Jinguashi, Daniel and Liz discuss the weather (or is it their plans for ORTV?). The name of this place literally means "gold melon rocks". This refers to the orange and yellow sulfur-coated boulders along the stream that tumbles down into the gorge. It reminds me a little of the Mammoth Hot Springs area of Yellowstone National Park, but has darker color here (with more orange and brown).
Liz takes in the beautiful view along the rocky cliffs at Cape Bitou.
After a long day of riding, Gareth and Angus take a break on the grass along the roadside near the shore. That seafood lunch is starting to settle and the sound of the waves makes for a nice lullaby (ZZZZZZZ).
