Lanyu, day 2: Around the Island

Day two! My dad and I were so exhausted from yesterday's trip that we hit the sack at seven thirty only. It worked out well because we managed to get up before six o'clock, which means that we could have an early breakfast and start touring the island! 

The view from the hotel window in the early morning.

We walked around the little town in search of breakfast.

Came upon a couple of pigs.

..and chickens.

Finally found a breakfast place! I had a hamburger, which turned out to be quite good.

They like to grow taro here.

Came across another village.

Got a shot of Dad getting a shot of the ocean.

The only 7 eleven on the island.

A rainbow in the distance.

A boy brought his two dogs and they started chasing the goats around, but the goat outran them.

We found out the dogs were only teasing them.

One of the many caves on Lanyu.

I used to see those boats in my textbooks a lot when I was in elementary school, so seeing them for real was utterly cool.

Another village on the island.

A road that leads to.... somewhere.

There's always got to be a hammock.

A herd of goats sitting under the enormous rock.

Dad climbed up the little slope. 

It was my turn to climb it. The colors down there were extraordinary.

More goats.

This place was one of my favorite places on the island. It was incredibly beautiful here.

My dad and I went to visit the old village.

This is what's left of it now.

We followed what was left of the river back. It was a huge challenge, since it wasn't easy walking on those rocks.

Later that afternoon, we went to look at some more places.

Dinner at a restaurant.

My favorite pig on the island.
