Wednesday, Mar 20th, Taipei, Taiwan

Greetings!

Fifty-five hundred miles from Auckland, New Zealand is Taipei, Taiwan.  For the next seven days, we're going to share with you what we find here.  This is a tour with Adventures Abroad, our favorite tour company.

When we join a tour, we usually arrive a day earlier than the tour starts, and make our way to the hotel that the company has reserved for us.  Flying takes up a day, especially with the time zone issues.  In this case, we also had a many-legged train and street-walking adventure to get to our hotel.

After a good night's sleep, we decided to get back on the Taipei Metro, and visit three temples: Baoan, Longshan, and Confucius.  We'd  recommend them in that order, and we'll be back at Longshan in a week on the tour.  Back at the hotel, we rested for a few hours before heading off with the group and our tour guide, Serra Hughes, to dinner.  Serra was our guide two years ago when we traveled to Greece, and we were really pleased to learn she would be leading this tour.
