Our trip to Kenting

Venus and I took a trip to Kenting, which is a town on the coast of Taiwan.  It is point C on the map below:



Getting There

On Thursday night, we road the high speed rail to Kaohsiung and spent the night there. It is about 245 miles form Taipei to Kaohsiung. The high speed rail is so awesome.  You pay around 1490NT ($ 52 dollars) and get from Taipei to Kaohsiung in about 1.5 hours.  We have nicknamed Kaohsiung "City of the Lounge Bar" because the whole city looks like a lounge bar. Anyway, it is very beautiful at night though.  

Then, on Friday, we took a Taxi from Kaohsiung to Kenting.  It is around 100 miles, but it only cost us 350 NT (around $ 12) each for that and it took about 2.5 hours.  
  
We stayed at a really great Bed and Breakfast place which is owned by a guy who used to be a chef at a 5-star restaurant.  They were nice enough to give us the honeymoon suite at a discount.  Our room had it's own balcony, and a bath tub that overlooked the ocean.

Here is a video of our room.  As you can see, Venus was very excited about it.  She's so cute.

Here are some pictures:

During the day, we went to the beach and explored a little bit.  We ate at some great restaurants too. At night, we went to the night market there.

On Sunday, we went to an Aquarium.

The breakfast at our Bed and Breakfast was really good.  I especially liked their home made bread.  The pictures really don't do it justice.



It was really amazing and romantic weekend.  We really didn't want to come back.
