Lovely stroll up Cha Hu Shan (Teapot mountain) today, followed by a sunset sea swim on the way home.

Love how the old Yorkshire slang for tea that my grandparents used was 'cha', which no doubt comes from the Cantonese influence in the UK. I drank some Yorkshire Cha at the summit.

Ml 6 off Yilan, so pretty close to use.

Cute little spicy noodle popping to the 711.

Any chance of an ID on this bird drying its wings on the rocks in the intertidal zone?

My guess is an Egret.

As you can see it's an excellent photograph...

Construction on the pedestrianised walkway over the road to maritime plaza in Keelung.

Not my pic.

Highlights of my day: a pre-work swim and post-work food!

Well I'm a country bumpkin myself so it makes sense :) we weren't planning a new cat yet after losing Prince to cancer last year, but this just kind of happened. They get their final vaccine dose next month, so we can get them spayed in May!

I just went up to the PX and ended up accidentally continuing to get stinky tofu.

This is the breakfast shop. It's closed on Sundays though.

It opens in a morning until 10:30AM and then 18:30-22:30 in an evening. Their scallion pancakes are lush.

Archive pic. He has a super spicy homemade chilli sauce as well.

Lovely day for a sea swim today and I had the whole ocean to myself. I forgot my phone so no day time pics. Went home and showered and then we came back out to enjoy the sunset and evening.

I skipped my sea swim today. I did venture out in the cold (for Taiwan) 15⁰C air temps though.
