Wow I have never sat still for so long in my entire life... Thursday morning we headed to the Kalamazoo airport at 5 am. Unfortunately our plane had mechanical problems so our 29 minute flight to Chicago was delayed 2 hours. From Chicago we had a 13 hour flight to Tokyo, Japan (which was also 2 hours delayed). Most of the time I slept or watched the movies provided. 13 hours is a long time to sit still. Felt like forever.. but the trip was not over yet. After another 3 1/2 hour flight to Taiwan Megan found us a bus and we rode into Taipei city. With the help of a nice bus driver, Megan's Chinese skills, a fantastic taxi driver and a random woman who knew where some foreigners lived we came to Michael and Emily's apartment around 2 in the morning. A grand total of 21 plus hours of travel.
This morning Emily, Drew, Megan and I went out to breakfast. We had something like a breakfast burrito at a shop on the street. I am trying to adjust and now fully understand the meaning of "culture shock". Ya.. I'm there. This week we will be staying with Michael and Emily in Taipei. The following week the English camps will begin and school starts February 2nd. More about that later. Thanks for all your prayers!
