Wow!
So...we finished classes! Well...we took the last two days off to travel a bit before being forced out of the country...haha. So, as usual, our last minute planning lead us to the train station to buy a ticket to Taitung, then hopefully a plane ticket to Green Island.

Mr. Huang's magical emporium
... at my moms legs to watch her squirm while the fish dove at her leg. I took a video but I don't have wifi to upload it.
Afterwards, Mr. Huang took us to another part of the coast with strange rock formations. "Like breaking a baguette in half" was his simile for a long stretch of rock that shifted due to the tectonic plates.
Mr. Huang called up a couple of his friends and we got some free custard apples (Taitung's specialty) and went to visit a ...
