A Day at the Ocean






Wow! I have been really terrible at keeping up with this blog this past week. I have been so busy that I just haven't had the time or the energy to get around to blogging. However there is so much to say so I will be writing a couple different posts so that you can read them at your own leisure.
This past week flew by so quickly; I can't believe that my time here in Taiwan is coming to an end. I'm filled with a lot of different emotions right now, I'm definitely excited to leave, but also sad to say goodbye to all of the amazing people I have met here.
This past week on Monday, I went to the ocean at an area called Sanzhi with Annie, Karen, and Hank. I was so happy to get the opportunity to go to the ocean with my friends here in Taiwan. I was also so happy that we got to take a car! I got to take a nap on the way there, which was a much needed nap as I woke up early that morning. It was such a beautiful day at the beach. We arrived and first went to this beautiful cafe where we had special drinks and enjoyed the views of the ocean. After relaxing in the cozy cafe, we walked on the beach and took our shoes off and enjoyed the cool fresh salt water. It was so lovely getting to spend time at the ocean; it reminded me of going to Maine during the summertime. It also made me miss home just a little bit, but I was having so much fun that I forgot about missing home!
After the beach, we drove to Bali, ( not the Bali in Indonesia), but the Bali right across from Danshui. We stopped to get some small snacks to taste. They were all delicious of course!I will definitely miss the food here. The sunset was absolutely beautiful in the town of Bali; it made me feel like I really was on vacation instead of studying for the summer.
Below are some photos from the day
