Comic book writer Liu Hsin-Chin

I have now been in Taiwan for the last three weeks, accompanying my wife Li-Huei, who is visiting her father. (He is having eye surgery.) We visited Hsinchu, famous for its high tech industries. A theme park along an old Japanese narrow-gage rail line includes a museum/restaurant dedicated to comic book writer 劉興欽, Liu Hsin-Chin. In the photo my wife is with one of his cartoon characters. The rail line gave access to the trees in the mountains for lumber during the Japanese colonial period, 1895-1945.
Late May and early June in Taiwan--hot, hot, hot. Love it.
