| The road lead to a temple and a dead end leaving no option but to turn around (good find though) |
 |
| Looking out over Sanzhi or Shimen from one of the mountain roads |
 |
| This road led us in the wrong direction although this was another good find |
2014 quickly coming to an end ...
The beginning to the end ...
 |
| The first time I ever laid eyes on Datsun, who was named Stan at the time. Cat = yes. Name = no. |
 |
| Datsun moved into this apartment one day after I did and from nothing, we built something wonderful! |
 |
| Not exactly the kind of box I was hoping to bring Datsun home in from the vet. |
 |
| This year's birthday gift. Datsun was definitely the best gift a girl could ever have. |
 |
| Rest in peace my little Boy Cat. March 2005 — December 22nd, 2014 |
富福頂山寺 — temple made of coral and seashells ...

 |
| At 龍泰陵 (Lóng Tài Líng) near Sanzhi District in northern Taiwan |
 |
| One of two stick bugs spotted today — this one being the bigger of the two |
 |
| Looking over to 龍泰陵 — a spectacular 20-floor mausoleum |
 |
| On the 20th floor |
Playing tourist on Sunday II ...
 |
| Nothing like finding random awesomeness in Keelung — inside 仙洞巖 |
 |
| Feeling a bit claustrophobic in 仙洞巖 — dark, wet and extremely narrow |
 |
| Part of Buddha's hand in 佛手洞 — no flash, no tripod |
 |
| Wandering around inside of 佛手洞 — eerie when alone |

| Discovered another pool to check out — a few people were swimming laps today! |
 |
| Heading around the path at 和平島公園 in Keelung — NT$60/adult |

| Looking at Taipei 101 from Bishan Temple in Neihu |
 |
| Found along the back mountain roads near Bishan Temple |
 |
| Hmmmmm?! |

Saturday November 8th, 2014 (27°)
 |
| The peak in the distance is Qixing Mountain, the highest dormant volcano in Taiwan (1,120m) |
 |
| One of the trails that heads up (and up) to the peak of Qixing Mountain |
 |
| Looking over to the Qixing Mountain Main Peak from the East Peak |
Sunday October 26th, 2014
 |
| Today's route was a challenging 4.5 hour hike on new trails in my neighborhood |
 |
| Looking at the second peak from the first — yes, we climbed up onto those peaks over there |
 |
| Two of the girls ended up with leeches — eek |
