Hello from Taiwan!
Gary and I have settled into our new home away from home — spacious 1½ rooms in a guest house of National Taiwan University, where Gary is a visiting international scholar. I am a simply a visitor.
I spent the first couple of days recovering from jet lag; two days ago I slept a whopping 15 hours and now I am back to normal. Yesterday we toured the city with our friends Kuo Hui, his wife Mei Chen and their 3-year-old son, Yi Kwan.
We went to Lungshan Temple
and watched a rally for the KMT (presidential elections are next week, and the KMT is the current party in power), then to Chiang Kai-shek Memorial
and noted cats are the same everywhere!
Now off to do laundry and to eat!
Cheers,
Marta and Gary
