lost? ... don't ask at 7-Eleven

I'm back in the hills
this time in northern Miaoli County (苗栗縣), in Nanzhuang Township (南庄鄉) south of Shitoushan (獅頭山)
lovely area, and to be honest, I'm not lost
but if i were, here is the map provided by 7-Eleven
and i couldn't figure out where the heck i was and then i realized that east is to the top (west bottom, north left, south right)
which is fair enough, but kind of goes against convention
so they might want to make it clear


this is a close-up of the compass
which doesn't actually say north is to the top
but
well, heck it does
Nanzhuang and Shitoushan are lovely, by the way, well worth a visit
(in summer when it's not raining)
