November Recap

Activities/Actions:
Ching-Fang & Yun-Huei's wedding and Kenting

Note and reflections:

For the past three weeks, I have been running most on a treadmill. Long runs on the weekend have been missed out. Need to get it right on track! The last weekend, JJ, Laura, and I drove down to PingDong to Yun-Huei's wedding.

Ching-Fang & Yun-Huei's wedding

The wedding luncheon was fun--pretty and handsome newlyweds! There were six of us (three of us plus Christine, Bernhard and Pei-Shan) at the reception. Yun-Huei had a toast from us with a special drink.


Kenting walks

On Sunday morning, I walked down to NanWan Beach for a quick morning entertainment after our visit to Kenting Main Road Night Market last night. Kenting has many many Thai restaurants--even one of them has "Thar food" (see photo below); 7-8 Thai restaurants, as I could count, were on the main street. The walk to NanWan was nice and relaxing. After check out from the hotel, Laura drove us to the Southernmost of the Island and we had a nice walk there. The weather reminded me a bit of Maine and Cadaqués weather and made us not want to go back to Taipei. After the walk, we drove to taste Wanluan famous pork leg and back to Taipei!

Thanks J.J. and Laura for driving us from and back to Taipei. The trip was fun.
