Welcome to the ALISHAN FILES

This blog is a resurrection of our original website 

Alishan.com

(the original website provider got taken over by an other company who " kindly " starting to double the yearly fees AND made editing or postings due to unfriendliness almost impossible...

...... resulting in a 404 error of our page. Thanx no thanks guys ! )

Lucky us, we still had all the text and pictues of the Alishan.com here-and-there on harddrives. 

Yeah. 

After this intro, the order of the files are from 2011 => 2003  (top to bottom).

So the first post is of Alishan being back in Fukuoka in 2011. While the last post is more or less about us getting ready to depart Fukuoka for our SE Asia Tour.

Halfway down our SE Asia tour & website postings, we also started blogs for quick reports:

Alishan on the Move 

     And there is of course Marijke's blog       

   Wings 'n Things 

That's us now, June 2024
