back from taipei. taipei is always fun. we left to escape the madness that is the hong kong rugby 7s and i am so glad we did. gone are the days of drinking for 3 consecutive days for me, at least. so we landed in the evening and went out to my favourite shabu shabu place and back to the hotel like the old farts we are. saturday was rainy but perfect weather for the national palace museum so we went to check out all the stolen (ahem) goods and for some dim sum. we later met up with a ny friend of mine who is studying mandarin for some night market action and of course, more food! so 10 pounds heavier, i am back in hong kong.
ive got to get through this week and then off to nepal!!!! the itinerary has been left up to the hagis as it was part of my christmas gift so i am very much so looking forward to it.
so in order to get out of here, weve been running around trying to source wonderful things like water purifying tablets, luggage locks and what not. so that being said, i took a lock i could not remember the code to and asked the kind folks in the store to reset it. they tell me they cant reset it but they will try all 999 combinations and call me if i leave my name and number. only in china, friends, only in china. but whats more scary is they called me in a flash having figured it out.
will be back with some pictures - until then, be well, me dears.
