Kaohsiung

On the first day, we went to southern Taiwan-Kaohsiung (高 雄) for the day, making efficient use of the ultra fast bullet train (高鐵). The whole ride from Taipei to Kaohsiung was merely 1 1/2 hours.The shuttle from Zuoying (where the train stopped) to the main shopping area took 45 minutes!!!!

We went to watch the sunset, right near where the British embassy used to be. (That girl is not me.)


That used to be the British Embassy- well, back in the 1900s.

Then we took a boat to a tiny island for dinner. We shared the boat with mopads!



We waited for the train at a park, where some musicians were entertaining the guests.
