Survived finding the bus stop and asking a zillion people for directions. Amazing what I can speak in Mandarin when survival’s on the line haha. If I really did live here for a few months, I bet my Mandarin could improve ten-fold… it’s tempting.
I decided to just stick the photos up on Picasa and link to them from there. Makes it easier and quicker to get them up. Picasa messes up the photo quality, but I’ll just add the better photos to Flickr when I get back.

Went to the morning marketplace near An-he and Tong-hua. Not nearly as packed as a night-market is, but just as interesting to see. LOTS of good food. I swear 90% of my trips to Taiwan are just about the food haha.

The wind dampener inside of Taipei 101. An engineering marvel… and pretty, too haha

The fence around the observation deck. It makes humming sound because of all the wind on the north side.
