A girl on a scooter stops and looks for the owner. She introduces herself as Nina from Tainan. She has just completed her studies in mass-communication and drives alone on her scooter around Taiwan. She knows some artists in Dulan. After an hour, at 9:00am we leave. Nina passes by us on her scooter, stops and gives me her mobile number in case I will need help when I come to Tainan. We walk along the coastal road, sometimes walk down to a beach strip and then we walk the long streched Shanyuan beach. This has been the best beach on the East Coast with a great camping place under pine trees just beside the ocean. Now they are building right on the spot a 5-star hotel. Many people are pretty pi..off, sorry..unhappy about this. Environmetal groups say that a legally required Environmental Impact Assessment has not been done. I don’t know, but it’s a pitty. The only good news is that the beach is still open. We …
