Penghu Welcomes you

Row row, row your boat, gently down the ocean, eventually we will end up in Penghu. Today, we took a not so bouncy boat ride to Central Penghu for some delicious traditional cuisine in a very old fashioned house. One thing unique about Penghu would be the fact that all the street signs were shaped like dolphins.

After lunch, we had to take another 10 minute boat ride to get to our final destination, Jibei Island. When we arrived, we went straight to their local museum, which was conveniently located at the docks. The museum showcased their old fishing styles, stony fishery trap, and it also included much information about the different fishes that can be found deep under the ocean.

However, the highlight of the day would be when we got to walk in the ocean to go to the stony trap set up in the ocean. The walk to the trap was one heck of a task due to all the pointy corals on the ground; many of us got injured due to the corals and the slipperiness, but all in all, it was all worth it.
