Today we went to an amazing beach on the Northeast coast of Taiwan called Fulong beach. We took an hour train ride there from Taipei. We had an amazingly fun time in the sand, sun, and water, and now Chris is sleeping on my shoulder on the train ride back.:)
The waves were sooo big, close to shore, and powerful that they told us we were not allowed to swim, but we were able to go in the water about chest deep. We definitely took advantage of that because it was so hot outside. The water was by far the warmest we have ever felt! Even compared to Hawaii the water was warmer. I rode the huge waves and Chris dove into the waves. The waves turned up so much sand and other stuff that Chris found a pair of googles he chased after and got! We stayed in the water most of the time and had a great time. When we were done we were going to rent bikes but since it is so humid we couldn't even dry and had sand everywhere and felt disgusting. We decided to just go back right away.
We are hoping to take a trip to either the Phillipines or the Penghu islands in a few days since they are so close and before my full time work starts...but we will keep you updated!:) loves!
