first 24 hours in Taiwan

Well the Hong Hong airport got me realy excited about Taiwan. Since I kept on meeting more participants as we were boarding the plane, the dream was becoming real. Upon laning those of us who had no visa had to go process our langing visa, ROC ( Republic of Chaina) Taiwan is reaaly organised they were people to direct us to laning visa office they had all our details and paid for our visa the process took less thn 5 minutes.
 After that we we to the lobby got ur local cellphones with credit. My host was waiting for me in another airport so i had to catch a bus to  the other airport an hour away. Lucy aka Apple to us to the bus stop and we were one step closer to our host family.
Since the airport was the last stop I did not fear getting off at the last stop. Yating ( my host) came to pick me at the airport and we caught the metro home. We my fast impressio of Taipei is that its fast pased and has a vibrant energy. After supper my hosts and I agreed to vist their parents at Nantou county for the weekend. We wld leave saturday afternoon when James fets back from work.

I was so excited I woke up at 05:30 I had not even set the arlam. After breakfast Yating showed me around the neighbourhood and her work palace, she is a teacer at the privete girls school. Since her school is near National Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial so we went there. Kai-Shek was the first President of ROC. Well i got to see a group yaoa session like i have seen on tv so i got exited. We the memorial is beautiful its just amazing as the men it represents. I do not know an former president with more than awards of courage as he does. President Chiang as he is caaled here was very learned and deplomatic in his dealings with other countries.
