Well after 2 days in Vancouver resting up, I am here on foreign turf. I was starting to feel a little like Tom Hanks in The Terminal doing laps around the Vancouver airport trying to waste 8 hrs before boarding the plane, but you stop caring as soon as the janitors give you high fives.
The plane ride was fairly painfree thanks to Chantal's tip about gravol....I was out for about 8-9hrs of a 12hr flight. I arrived in Kaohsiung to find Kaid and Ed waiting for me. Came back to their place, got settled, and decided to start looking for a camera.
We took to the streets, Kaid in the lead knowing where we should be looking. But me being the indecisive person that I am wasn't sure on the cameras, so we walked around for a while instead.
All these english teachers, X-paks as they are known here, teach from 2-9 or so, so I may wander around tonight. Kaid got me a map so I will see how I feel. I need to pound the water apparently, and keep pumping in the cold f-x. The guys seem to have my time planned out on what they want me to see and do, I am excited to see what the week will bring including learing to drive a scooter. Especially cause Kaid has a broken arm, so I can drive his!!! Ahh Yeah......
