So, yeah, we made the move. Not really a catch all Taitung thread. 
So. There’s ah, no Uber in Taitung.
There’s some beach thang this weekend at the abandoned hotel.
All the dogs have balls.
All in all, loving it so far.

Sounds like Taitung really is the dog’s bollocks

Taitung is smallville. I love the thereabouts parts.

I assumed you meant the district, not the city…
Dog’s bollocks is a positive thing, BTW
The dogs on Taiwan’s east coast beaches are all depressed, or so I have heard.
Low hanging crew.

There’s new talk about repurposing it so the thang might be a protest.
There are flags all over, so it might be a rave or some something. Wife says it’s being advertised as a party. 
As for repurposing, good. They should do something with it. 
It is a festival.

That might be interesting. I see it’s that time slot on both days.

Idk any of the performers of course, being old and completely uninterested in Taiwanese music. But the road is fully orange coned this morning.
And it has been threatening rain for days and now, since there’s an outdoor music thang, it is raining.
Update: and the rain stopped. I’m going to assume unless it’s raining raining, it doesn’t much rain down here. Probably rains up the hill everyday tho.
Had a guy come in and plow a patch of land for a vegetable garden. I love watching the Taiwan Jerry rig show when he has to hook up the hose to the house faucet. 
Don’t leave home without it!

You mean before y’all showed up. You know you’ll be uberin’ the eff out of Tiatung effin’ County as soon as you realize you’re bored as eff. A guy can probably only read so many hours per day, you know.
Anyway congrats for finally being near the Pacific Ocean, seems a proper resting place for leathernecks!

We have a car. 
We needed an Uber because a window got berated when the guy was weed whacking the grass and a rock or forty flew up.
I’m not bored at all. My day is already full. I get to nap too!

Interesting use of the word berated.

Ha, spell check didn’t like “busted.”

I thought it was poetic license. It kind of made sense to my ageing brain.
“Window dressed down” maybe?

Congrats! Taidong - my dream place!
What is it for?
Bug bites. I feel like a walking buffet table at times.
