Taipei, Taiwan (Sept 24-28)

I will be in Taipei until Friday. I hope no more typhoons are following me like the last time I left Manila for Tokyo. My hotel, The Howard Plaza, is really nice but unfortunately I didn't bring my camera to take any pictures in Taiwan. The Taipei 101 is the tallest building in Taiwan is viewable from my hotel. The currency here is NT (New Taiwanese Dollar) and is about 33.5 NT per U.S. Dollar.


I think I will try out some of the local food here and see what there is to buy, even though it seems everything you buy and are unsure of its origin has the familiar "Made in Taiwan R.O.C." stamped on it. Here are some pictures of taipei I found on the internet.
