Malaga Cove Hike

 Malaga Cove Hike: 5 miles

I went hiking with Sierra Club started at Malaga Cove Fountain.

Meet few people

Gingerbread cookie for snacks

Yesterday while hiking with Sierra Club. I mention to a guy that we went to half moon bay and did not see any crab due to whale season… He then told me he went crabbing with his friends

3 people caught 150 crabs. 

1 person said he didn’t want any

So 2 people divided 150 crabs= 75 each

He ended up giving most of his crab away…

Lunch at Otafuku!

Baldwin Hills/Culver City Steps Hike

 We started the day climbing to…

Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook

This is one of my favorite overlook in Los Angeles. It really reminds me of Bernal Heights in SF

The view of the city is amazing!

Combined with the stairs workout 

Makes this a great outdoor experience!

Taiwan 2025

Taiwan

We love Taiwan. The trip started with Paul's 50th school reunion, then we explored Yilan ( hot springs, cabybara, and fish that eat your dead skin). Then we spent time with Paul's uncle in TaiChung, Visted Alishan, and then back to Taipei to visit some old friends... And had dinner at Din Tai Fung with Paul's mom's old friend. Overall a very fulfilling trip going down memory lane.
