Once again we went on a little adventure this weekend! We went to a small town on the west coast called Wanggong. I loved it! It was beautiful! It was different than anything I've seen so far and I really liked it! Karyn, Kailey, Liz, Amy and I went on this little journey together :)

Welcome to Wanggong, my friends!

We had to walk a ways from the bus stop to the shore. But I loved it! This was the trail we walked on. Every once and a while, they had these cool walkways that you see pictured here. They weren't bridges, but they were just coverings.

They were a little shelter from the sun. It was nice, because there was nothing else around to shade us.

I really liked this cool, modern bridge we had to cross to get to the shore.

I thought Dad would like the lighthouse in this picture and Nate would like the wind mills :)

I liked these boats and those vehicles you see on the road behind the boats also went into the water.

Another awesome bridge!

Me and the lighthouse! We couldn't go inside, but it was still awesomeness!

I liked all of the textures in this picture. The grass and the plant and the logs and the rocks and the cement blocks and the sand and the water.

My feet in the Taiwan Strait!

The water was really shallow and you could go really far out there, walking or in the vehicles. Those are the vehicles we saw on the road in the few pictures above. Literally the water barely covered my feet in certain areas and you could go far out there.

Wind-blown hair and the beach! Those are people behind me on the left. They were far out there!

I loved this place! Isn't it beautiful?! We walked along the beach for a while and just hung out there watching the people and the boats and the crabs and the water. I enjoyed playing in the sand and looking for shells!

I loved the texture of the sand and the lighthouse in the background!

The windmills were close to the water!

Look at those little crabs! There were so many of them. But if you got anywhere near them, they would immediately and quickly run into their holes in the sand. I got this picture with the zoom on my camera.

I liked the sun shine, the bridge and the boats!

This was on our way back to the bus stop!
We didn't get to stay in Wanggong very long, but I highly enjoyed it! Like I said earlier, it's different than anything I've seen here. But I really liked it!
P.S. Sorry I'm not very descriptive in my writing. I have a hard time describing things with words sometimes and I think that might be why I take pictures so much. But I must say too that a lot of times, it's really hard to actually capture in a picture what I see with my eyes. If that makes any sense.
It's just not quite what I see with my eyes or it's not the whole picture, but it's close. I think also part of visiting a place is the feeling that you get while you are there and that is definitely something you cannot capture or even explain sometimes. Any way, I just wanted to tell you that.
P.P.S I love beaches! But I think I will save that for another post on another week!

So glad you had another fun Saturday. The bridges are certainly unique. The vehicles that go in the water, do they just stay in the shallow water or do they actually float? Does it ever cool down there or is the waether just hot and hotter?
Pictures are always so much better than words. As the old saying goes, one picture is worth a thousand words. So, let's see: your 8 pictures of Wanggong are worth....8,000+ words! Pretty descriptive to me-so no need to apologize for lack of words.
Like you I always love the beach and port towns wherever I go. Your weekends are so awesome!!
I love the funky bridge and the wind-blown hair picture. Ellie was just telling me yesterday that she thought it was really pretty when the wind blew people's long hair. :)
By the way, WE MISS YOU!!!!
Did you eat any of those crabs? Nothing like super fresh seafood. J/k. I found a blog that I thought you'd really like. http://prettyplethora.blogspot.com/
try it. She's super cute like you.
Help! I need my AnnaLisa fix. It's been 1-1/2 weeks now and I'm wondering if that monsoon came back and took a late hit.
