The Plan

Here's the plan. Arrive in Taipei and spend a night or two to get our bearings and catch up on some needed sleep from the 19 hr flight. We will then catch a train south to Kaohsiung (pronounced "gaoshung"). I have heard conflicting stories on how long the train takes; anywhere from 90 minutes to four hours. Once we arrive in Kaohsiung, we need to find a cheap hotel and start the job search. We have a few contacts so hopefully something comes through quickly.

Kaohsiung is the 2nd largest city in Taiwan and the 6th largest port in the world. Apparently it has some of the best beaches, mildest winters, and long summers. Unfortunately, it is also prone to typhoons in the monsoon season; as seen from the typhoon that ripped through southern Taiwan on Saturday.

Selling White Lightning

Update: SOLD!!!!



In the process of selling my car. If you know of anyone who needs a cheap, reliable car for around $400, pass my details along. 300,000km, good Pioneer sound system, 4 winter/4 summer tires.

It has a bit of rust on the door panels and wheel-wells but the engine runs well and the interior is in excellent condition.
