Xindian River. Having a bike is great for a Friday afternoon getaway down the riverside. Especially when relationships are cooling down with classmates, and you need to get away from them.
There's my $10 second bike under that tree. I haven't found anywhere indoors where I can practice shakuhachi, so I usually end up in the park across the street from my apartment to practice. I often take my shakuhachi when I head to the riverside bikeways, but when I ride, I tend to just ride. But sometimes I find a nice place to stop to blow a few notes.

you should record an album! :)
is it really that green over there, or is that some kind of fancy koji/lomo trickery? in any case, it's just lovely.
now we're planning the crime of the century, oh what will it be...
I don't know why but I've always loved that song. It sounds like the end of something.
I'll never tell! Let's just say that Taiwan is borderline tropical. Who am I kidding, OK, it's not really this green in Taipei city, but I do like how these shots came out.
Someone on fotolog always points out the Supertramp I listen to :) And well, yea, that song ends two of their albums! ;) Just kidding, I know what you mean, with the lyrics that just....go nowhere, and then into the dramatic fade out.
We have a shakuhachi lover for about 40 people in Taiwan. If you are interesting to join us and fun. That will be great.
