Okay- So!
We have been in Taipei, Taiwan for a week. It has been a blast. (for those of you who are geographically challenged, here is a map of Taiwan.)
We recorded a first “hello” video for people who might be missing us. (or people who we think should be missing us) You can see it at the end of this post.
We arrived in 28 degree and 80% humidity weather. It has cooled off since. We now enjoy the occasional refreshing breeze. (when it’s not pouring rain)
Places we visited: (and many more)
Taipei 101. Dan Shui (淡水) - The fisherman’s wharf, and the market, and Hong Mao Cheng (紅毛城). The Grand Hotel (圓山大飯店). Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall (國立國父紀念館).
When we find time/internet, we promise that we will introduce all these places in detail. (But don’t hold us to it.)
We have been enjoying very awesome food (cheap too!!), and we are now ninjas on public transit (N.O.P.T.). We even manage to find ourselves some free wireless internet places.
We also bought a GPS logger directly from the distributor here in Taiwan. (It ended up costing almost half of what it would’ve / should’ve cost in Vancouver). We are still having difficulties downloading the data into our prestigious (stubborn) Macs… But I am sure we’ll soon figure out a way to do so.
Many more pictures and videos to come. (We are struggling with the lack of internet at home and the slowness of free internet elsewhere.)
We’re still setting up our blogging & youtubing & GPS tracking- etc, but we’ll be up and running soon, for now we’re a little slow getting off the blocks…
So for now, cheers.
