That was for W's dad...
After a very long delay leaving Narita (2 hours...the pilot forgot the paperwork!) finally arrived in Taipei. An early wakeup and on the way via train to Hualien and Taroko Gorge. Just beautiful...Formosa. 7 hour trip through the Taroko Gorge was amazing. The photos will say it all. Spent the night wandering the town (which does not seem to sleep). Then off tomorrow for Taitung and Green Island. Later
