The West Coast of Taiwan has a lot more going on than the East Coast, although I prefer the solitude and beauty of the Eastern shore.

The day is coming to an end and we can't find anywhere to stay.
It's very difficult finding accomodations in Taiwan. I think one reason it being that the country is so small that you can drive the island in 2 days. The hotels are generally over priced and sometimes you have to call a phone number to find the place and talk to the laoban. For this place, we drove well into the night. We were really racing for sunlight towards the end and found ourselves in a crab shucking village without a hotel around. Our first attempt here, Bodi Bear, we declined because of the price. We drove an additonal 5 Km to another weird hotel that was sold out. So we went back to Bodi, where Jason and I had a little run in with each other...don't ride at night folks. Luckily our bikes were okay, and so were we. It turned out that we got the second to last room at Bodi Bear.
Our own private garage that I would of been completely content just sleeping in one of these for the night. weird hotels.
Weird music played when you opened the door and a lot of porn on the t.v.
