what a nice country for cycling! From Jongli going to north and following the coast, we took 10 days of cycling, we had so many nice experiences. We stop in every county to try their famous food specialities, their famous features, buildings, museums, national park... Unfortunately, so many things are closed on monday!?!?!?!? So we didn't rush around Taiwan. We just enjoy the nice sunny days we had. But of course, we also had some rain on the east coast, Taiwan is Taiwan. We just had one bad idea on the day 5, we took the road 197 from Chihshang to Taidung. It's a nice quiet country road, we just had the bad luck a a flat tyre under the rain and had for 20 Km of gravel road. Just a light accident broke the moral of my poor Deborah.

The nice stinky tofu of Taitung fixed our moral after our bodies suffered of sunburns and scratches. We also been in a nice tea shop learning about tea. So many thing a Canadian guy like me don't know about tea. Deborah use her talent of interpreter to make the conversation between us and the old guy.
We had a so nice guesthouse in Taidung for 1000 dollars a night(Hotel quality).

Then heading south, Kending National Park. The road was steep, but once we are up, we go down, I like it. :)

Everybody helped us with so many informations, food, water, any kind of service.

I try to make this summary short but, this trip was full of adventures.

That was one of the greatest trip of my life.

Thank you Taiwan

Xavier and Deborah
