After reading several posts in the past little while from people looking to connect with others or wanting to know what there is to do here, it occurred to me that it may be the time to start a Hualien Happy Hour.
Any East coasters interested? I’d be glad to set something up here for June.
We could start by maybe gathering for a meal one evening at an outdoor restaurant/pub such as the Aboriginal place at the Beibing park or maybe do a night market crawl… whatever people want to do…
That would be cool! :bravo: And you’re only three hours away from Taipei - if it were on a Saturday night, I might take the train out there, and stay at the club house…
Well, the one year old is truely an angel… The 7 year old might have been lost somewhere in the Untied States as we traveled to Taiwan last June… No worries, though. We will find him soon, I hope.
Okay, let’s do it! First Forumosa Hualien Happy Hour will be on Saturday, June 18th if that works for most people. I’m up for suggestions as to what you would like to do. Post your thoughts here and I can make arrangements as needed.
Some ideas might be:
dinner at Enigma (resturant/pub style place)
bbq on a beach (which beach?)
just drinks somewhere
raid on Starbucks
food nightmarket crawl (Nanbing or Tze Chang)
add whatever you can think of
Cut off for final suggestions will be Saturday, June 11th
Final decision will be posted by 5:00 p.m. Tuesday, June 14th with location, time and directions.
ALL Forumosans are invited to our first Happy Hour here in Hualien!
Yes! Happy Hour is happening here in Hualien but what with not being able to get in contact with anyone I am wondering if tomorow night is too late for people to plan to come?
The thought is: Enigma at 7:00 p.m. for dinner and those who would like to stay on later would be able to do so. There should be live music later, a pool table is available for those who would like to shoot a game or two and if it isn’t raining the patio is quite nice. Meals tend to range in the 150 - 250 Nt area and the menu is in English.
Location: Enigma is on the Coast Road just across from the Hualien Port. You’ll see two outdoors type places side by side. One is a patio type place and the other is a more tropical tree filled place. Enigma is the one with the large patio on the left.
Because of the time constraints it would be appreciated if you could post whether tomorrow (the 18th) is good for you or if you would rather get together on Saturday the 25th at the same time and location. Please let me know by 1:00 p.m. and I’ll be online with the final results of the big WHEN questions by 2:00 p.m.
Thanks for your patience regarding the lateness of the final arrangements but it just couldn’t be helped! PM your phone number to me if you can’t check back after 2:00 and I’ll give you a call A.S.A.P.!
