Dante and I have been vowing to go since August.
Today was finally the day!
Well-rested and full after a pre-Christmas dinner party at my house, we headed out bright and semi-early to explore the Caoling Historic Trail that runs from the north of Yilan county to Taipei.

The hike starts at a temple behind Dante's school. After hiking for about 3 hours, we reached the tallest point in the Northeast Region, with 360 degree views of the ocean, mountains, and surrounding counties. The weather was 70 degrees and breezy, we couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day!
Here are some pics, more are posted on Picasa.
We tried to do as the Taiwanese do, and pose for pictures at every possible location.
We finally reached the top!
