June 11 - In Taipei

I said goodbye to Elaine & Janice and took the high speed train from Kaoshiung to Taipei (this line opened for service in January). I met Kyle there, who is a friend of Elaine's - she met him the 1st time she was in Taiwan. He showed me around Taipei and helped me find my way to the hostel.

Here he is outside the Terracotta Soldiers display at a museum.


It was already dark by the time we got to Taipei 101 ... the tallest building in the world. There are some much better pictures of it on Elaine's blog. Go check it out.
The Murrayville boot is still traipsing along with me ...
