Left from LA after speeding on 110 and 105 after looping off 10 because the damn 710 was closed.I wonder how many times I've flown out of this airport. I'm glad it's being re-modeled right now.
13.5 hours later...
Layover at CKS中正/桃園Tao Yuan International Airport depending on your nationalist flavor/fervor.
I realize I've never flown into Taiwan at dawn, I usually come in at night. Pretty stunning views of Ilha Formusa, Dan Shui (淡水河), and that bridge here:
The election has certainly changed Taiwan in some ways, last year it all the billboards were clamoring for UN recognition of Taiwan:
Other things do not change:
Look zoo displays for ethnicities!
And exotic flowers of Taiwan!
Hello Kitty Galore!
And ridiculous public service announcement about serious issues like STDs that are still adorable!:
In all seriousness though, I think this is interesting:
Three prayer rooms for two of the major religions in Asia and Christianity, side-by-side. I like how Buddhism separates the two though:
Enough of layover, off to Singapore!
