Happy 2012! Last weekend friends of mine had their wedding in Kenting, at the southernmost tip of Taiwan. They were kind enough to loan us a car to get ourselves down there, so early Saturday morning, my three roommates and my Aaron all piled into a tiny Tercel for the five hour trip to the south.
On the way we stopped at the rest area, and as you can see, we did more than simply rest.
The following are some photos I snapped while walking around the main street in Kenting, the touristy shop area. It was a beautiful day, and happily lacking in the abundance of tourists usually found in Kenting.

Shells are sold at lots of the shops. 
Lots o'shells...
See! Happily lacking of tourists!
It's easy to rent a scooter to zip around Kenting, if you have a local scooter license or an international license. I have both, and both are expired. Oops. 
Ooh, here's a tourist. Oh wait. That's my roommate Beth. She wanted some flip flops.
This small chain convienience store, along with 7-11, Hi-Life, and OK Mart, are found on nearly every single corner in Taiwan. You never have an excuse to be without coffee.
Look hard, and you'll find what results when people drink too much of what they're advertising, and then attempt to hang a sign for what they're advertising.
That's it for now!
