Day Two

Meredith and I made it to Taipei in one piece yesterday at 5:30 am local time... Malaysia airlines are great if anybody out there is considering making a similar trip... We are staying at Taipei Hostel right now while we get acquainted with the city. We just now got back from Taipei 101, the worlds tallest building, just before it began raining. It gets extremely hot and humid before the rain... I nice little indicator. The people are nice and very well dressed. The food is both cheap and good. Mandarin makes no sense whatsoever but we are nonetheless trying ... for the most part. Most understand a little English so it may take longer to learn the language with such a convenient crutch. I don't have a camera yet so there won't be any pictures for a while. Until then you should all take my word and make the trip some time.
