Okay, so I lied... This is KL to Taiwan



On the bus to Air Asia terminal as the sun rose, I took my last look at Malaysia, only to discover when I got to the check-in counter that my flight was for YESTERDAY!  I had to pay $200 extra dollars to take another flight today, and I am PLENTY peeved that Air Asia never sent me a reminder.  After I booked today's flight you can bet your bottom dollar that I received THREE pre-flight reminders, all after the fact.  Heads will roll when I get home...



I was so thrilled to be back in Taiwan where things actually WORK, and just to prove it, here are two men with white gloves on, lining up the suitcases as they come out of the conveyor belt onto the passenger conveyor belt.  Now these guys are WORKING, and it was all so tidy and smooth that my spirits lifted immediately.

Thanks to my new friend Ena, I got the bus to the bullet train station, we bought some tofu and noodles at 7-11, and off I went to Kaohsuing!

This was out the window on our way into Kaohsuing.



And this was a huge mural over the stairs/escalators going down into the MRT from the high-speed train station to the main train station where my Single Inn is located.



I saw this funky old truck as I strolled around the city tonight, drinking gallons of juice because the 7-11 sauce on that tofu was FULL of MSG.

On my wander around the neighborhood, I stumbled on this walk along a narrow river or some body of water and thought it a perfect spot for my run tomorrow morning; in the meantime, I must snuggle down into my pod where I have a bed and a table.  There is a television on the wall at the foot of the bed, but that's not really of interest to me.  I just can't WAIT to get home!!!!
