Ride Description: Hotter 'n Hell Taipei style today. Holy crap, I HATE being hot. Today bordered on miserable for me. Chen Li and Karen didn't seem to be bothered by it. Of course Chen Li is Chinese and Karen has lived here for 30 years or so. Our route was Guandu, Bali, Archaeological Museum and back. I finally stopped and told them to go on ahead so I could ride at my own pace and stop in whatever measly little shade I could find. Did I already say I HATE being hot????????? |

A Mandarin-English website said that was "Watch out, don't touch it." I don't know Mandarin, but that does look like a rat.

Kin, too funny. We had turned the corner just after we saw the rat, but it was too good a photo op to ignore so I went back to shoot it. The photo, not the rat. We rarely see dead rats in this good of a condition.
