Leaving Taiwan

So continuing from last night, Lee picked us up at 5:20am just like he said, we didn’t leave till around 5:30am because EK was sleeping and didn’t finish packing. We arrived at Amy’s house not so much later. It really is a like a high class hotel rather than an apartment. It’s really lavish and decked out; a very nice place to live.

When we came in, we all just passed out and took a nap for a few more hours before we needed to go to the airport. After a few hours passed; we woke up and Amy made us lunch. It was just gyoza or pot stickers and meat balls, but it was good and enough to make us full. She did make a lot of them. It was good and a perfect way to end our trip. She called the front desk and asked them to get us a Taxi.

The taxi was an unmarked Toyota Camry, one of those really nice ones too. So that was nice and it only cost us about $10 USD to get to the airport, which isn’t bad at all. We waited around a little bit and bought some more souvenirs before we left to go back to Tokyo.

The airplane ride wasn’t so bad. There wasn’t much entertainment on the plane though and I had a window seat, but only got a view of the right wing of the plane. The food was good though, which surprised me a little bit.

The train ride after the plane ride was much smoother except the seats were a bit hot for me. I had all my luggage in front of me and all the hot air from the heaters was blowing back at me, so it got hot after a little while.

I didn’t get home till around 11:30pm and I was pretty beat, so took a shower and got some rest.
