Sidebar - fresh seafood, funky rocks, and cows

Over the 3 days we were in Taidong, we used the little time we had not attending festivals to enjoy a few more attractions in the area.

On Sunday morning we went to Fugang harbor - which boasts some of the freshest seafood on the whole island.



This decor is typical for Taiwanese seafood restaurants. We sampled the sashimi - which practically melted in your mouth, salt & pepper sea snails, stir-fried clams, and a type of unfamiliar vegetable which they said is popular among aboriginals.




We also took a side trip to "Small Yeh-liu" (it's "large" counterpart is in Taipei county) a rock & coral seashore eroded into curious formations.





Before we left, Feiona's cousin brought us to Chulu Ranch, where we indulged in pure milk ice cream, milk biscuits and milk steamed buns. Despite charging for admission, there really wasn't much to see inside besides a small petting zoo and milk processing plant.
