Day #9 - Koahsiung to Tainan

Shorter day today. Normally I like to take a day or two off each week of riding. However, this trip - for various reasons - we've had the ox be stuck in the mire so it's just been non-stop. Despite the shorter day, man, was it hot. And when I say hot I mean it was like 74 degrees F. 🤷

We took a break at this really neat museum that had a lot of medieval weapons and armor, animal taxidermies, musical instruments, paintings, and other artwork. Apparently this guy had been collecting it for years and turned it into a museum a few years ago. Worthwhile to go visit if you're in southern Taiwan!

Only 47.12 km (29.40 miles) today. Looks a lot longer on the map.

Look how great of an uncle Meatsticks is being to Lily Rose. He loves her.

Getting ready to leave!

But we need to make a pit stop to worship the Almighty.

I love the exclusive tunnels for bikes and scooters.

I also like when they decorate boring old concrete.

Such as these train tracks. It reminded me of toy train sets.

Holly and Sticks raved over this place. It was decent.

It's like they built a Buddhist temple on top of someone's house. Love it.

Here comes HQCH!

That neat museum we found had really nice grounds. Carve out several hours from your day when you stop by here.

My favorite sword. Look how huge that is.

Since the bean is American she has guns in her blood.

We try to get her crawling and stretching as much as possible when we take breaks.

Jamie's first time trying the Japanese fast food joint, Moss Burger. Look what it did to him.

I found an effective way to carry Rose Gold that leaves one arm free.

Oh yeah, you don't use Fahrenheit. It was about 23° C.
