progress report: rock n roll weekend pt 1

Ivo and I went to Taipei to meet Phil and Genevieve at the airport on Thursday night - 30 March. We went up to Taipei, stayed in a hotel and then spent the next day sight seeing. Weather was great and so super fun. Ivo had a blast.

We went to the National Palace Museum - which had a lot of renovations going on - sothe grounds were mostly closed. But on our way out - we found a beautiful garden with paths and ponds. Then we walked to the MRT - which I think took about an hour and on the way stopped at a temple. Phil is an excellent map reader, getter-arounder, he was able to navigate the MRT system without a hitch.

Three trains each way to the zoo stop where we caught a cab to Maokong - atop a mountain with a view of Taipei 101 and lush forest.

Then we trained back to the Wall where Phil n Genvieve sound checked. There were about 50 people waiting on line - even before doors opened.

Ivo n I drove home - only took 2 hrs 15 min. Today Ryan, Ivo n I are all going to Kenting!!! Yay!!!

More soon.
