The water in the gorge is this unique blue because the rock it travels over is white marble. This picture is as close to what it looks like in person as you can get!
This says "Taroko Gorge" and something about "we have lots of marble and you can't have any for you kitchen Pam!"
It was beautiful! We hiked two trails up into the mountain and along the water. On one thin trail we were hiking along, watching for falling rocks (the signs told us this was our job) when suddenly:
a guy came flying by on the path on this! Motor scooters are everywhere here! I have no idea how it got to this remote path that we had to walk down 200 stairs to get to!! Amazing!
I just did some catching up on your blog and it was so much fun! Your pictures are great! Have you lost more weight? When I read your comments I can almost hear your voice in my head.
