Dragonboat holiday 2009


fireworks & dancer
Originally uploaded by swivelizer
we headed up to Danshui during the Dragonboat holiday and spent the day at the beach getting pummeled by the waves and burned by the sun. at the beach we met up with some friends and eventually made our way back to Danshui with them for the evening. Danshui was nutty with parades and people celebrating. we made our way through the crowds and eardrum piercing firecrackers. it was a surreal and some what apocalyptic evening that ended at the temple of the god of justice where gangsters danced, drummed and set of fireworks before unloading there ghost money. Taiwan is awesome!!

yeah, we had to do it!! stoic, myself and some friends made our way south for a day of paintball. but the fun didn't stop there we also did some rock wall climbing, arm wrestling and go-carting. it was too much fun and left us all a little sore for the workweek!!
