Dear Tombro & Flobro,
Your lovely card arrived this morning in Palma.
I’ve taken a picture of it in front of the bay of Palma. Right now it’s cold but sunny.

Sitting in St. Pancras Station, waiting for the Eurostar.
Drinking a hot chocolate (lumps of cocoa dropped into hot milk).
Woman walks passed as I dreedle the last chocolate into the milk.
“Very nice, is that a Hockney”, she says.
Wutai (Chinese: 霧臺鄉; Rukai language: Vedai) is village in the Wutai Township. The township is a mountain indigenous township in Pingtung County, Taiwan.
The main population is the Rukai people of the Taiwanese aborigines.
As of the year 2014, the Rukai numbered 12,699, and is the seventh-largest of the 13 officially recognized indigenous groups in Taiwan.
The Rukai were called Tsarisen, which means “people living in the mountain”.
The Rukai regards Dawu Mountain as their Holy Mountain.
In these you can see the town school (elementary school), and the “tribal plaza”, and good strong 3G coverage from the BTS antenna
We’re online with the iTribe, indigenous peoples WiFi network.

I managed to get my short back and sides haircut in Kaohsiung today.
Hair cut, hair wash, and neck massage all for 300 NTD. Total bargain.
I’m leaving this here for next time I need to get a hair cut when I don’t speak the local language well enough.
As the title says. 4 big Taiwanese cocks.
