Short Holiday in Kenting

The lack of update is due to our ADSL being cut off - we forgot to change the address when we moved, then it got reconnected, the only thing was it still wouldn't work.... so we called an engineer, he came and then called two more engineers and a new piece of CAT5, ADSL box and thirty minutes later we were back online. Yeah.

We headed to Kenting, which is on the southern most tip of Taiwan, and is blessed with sandy beaches.

We arrived on Friday and checked in to the hotel. The hotel was lovely but it was between two separate hotels having construction work, which meant our room was shaking, with bleeping, buzzing and banging noises reverberating around the small room. We were less than thrilled and decided not to stay. We were worried the hotel owner would tell us to sod off, as we'd paid for everything up front. She battled for a while but we were resolute and got our money back and later separately booked into another smaller hotel for a lot less money.

We spent most our time walking around and sitting on the beaches around Kenting. We also rode around the coastline, which was gorgeous. The food was tasty, with a strong Thai influence. It was a nice holiday with strong winds!

Spider in the hammock lair.


I love to feast on the Thai cuisine.


It started to move and the crowd went wild.


This, at first, looked like a dead man in a bag, floating in the sea.


The sea creature came to land for the fist time to start life on land.


The famous "kissing rocks". If you squint with one eye and concentrate hard, you'll not see it.


A coral sea lagoon.


We head out for a day trip, with new head gear and fantastic clouds.


Kate with the all-in-black lesbo biker look.


The wonderful sky.


Kate screaming at me in the wind.


Oh, the view, the beauty it's soooo.... lovely darling.


The bridge of doom, Kate fell over while running backwards.


My friend, Tiny, picks Kate up and throws her on the scooter.


On the beach for the last night.


Beautiful sunset.


She's a talented lass.


These coach seats are real - time to head home!
