Howdy peeps,
On monday I boarded my first overseas flight. After a shaky and very noisey take off it was all good. The service was great and the tv screens in the back of the seats were quite novel. After the first couple of hours the reality of being stuck in a metal cylinder flying through the air at 500 km/h set in. After a couple of movies, 4 beers, a bit of drawing, listening to music, and talking to the people next to us we were finally arriving in Taiwan.
It was 7pm there and we got shuttled off to a golf resort about 25mins from KCS international airport. There was no bar, no atmosphere and nothing around it for kilometers. So we went to sleep after surfing the 100 channels of asian soaps. We decided to go to taipei the next day but the resort the airline supplied us didn't do a bus to taipei and after a $50 AUS, $850 NT taxi into the city it was well worth it. The building are all tiled and it was kinda a slight ordered chaos. We managed to take the MTR, eat a bowl of wonton noodles, lined up behind a bunch of locals for a street fried dumpling (damn good pork centre). Found the shuttle bus back to the airport $125 NT dollars. When we got back to the airport our flight was cancelled, but luckily we were there quite early and we were put on a early flight. Got on the plan with a horrible meal that smelt like feet and taste like feet, but the melon dessert was awesome. After and hour and half we arrived in Hong Kong.
