BAH!!!

I tried to blog this classic example of Taiwanese city planning a moment ago, and then discovered that for some reason it hadn't been posted. Anyway, this is a small section of Jeow-fen. Posted by Picasa

Wil Playing with Fireworks

This was taken at Damshui. It was my last day of Chinese New Year holidays. I like Damshui quite a bit--it is right on the water, and much clearer and cleaner than most of the rest of Taipei. There are also some interesting historical buildings there, from the times when the Dutch/English/Portuguese/whoever were trying to run things. We also got lost and wandered around for a frustrating amount of time. Posted by Picasa

Temple in Jeow-fen

During Chinese New Year, Ava took Brian and Wil and I to a small town called Jeow-fen. I did not catch the name of it, but I thought it was quite nice. Posted by Picasa

Seen: Outside Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall: The Blair Witch Project 15

Or rather some enormous art installation. It was kind of cool, especially in the wind with all the wood creaking and groaning. Posted by Picasa
