Taking a break during our bike trip.


Berry picking in December? Whaaaaat??




I'm not sure what they're called, but they sure are lovely!


First time trying to ride a scooter.


Ice cream, Night Market, and two of my favourite boys. 


Entrance to Dragon and Tiger Pagodas in Kaohsiung.

UPDATE: I just learned you enter the dragon's mouth for good fortune, and exit the tiger's to banish bad luck. There is also some amazing carved artwork going on in the entrance/ exits, but I didn't snap a photo as we walked through. The towers are also seven stories tall!!



Sunset from the top of the first tower.


That's a looong way down!
