Quote from: "Herman"Are you having fun there kid? How is the weather?

I'm in the city of Tainan..



I'm having a delightful time getting reacquainted with my cousins and elderly aunts and uncles..



One of my cousins lent me her car and I drove to the historic Anping district yesterday..



I'm enjoying the night markets, the beautiful temples, and city park..



I haven't even gone to the museums, or nearby hot springs and mangrove swamps yet..



Saturday, it's supposed to be twenty one for a high, which will be nice because we're going to the beautiful Sun Moon Lake..



Next week, I'll take the high speed train to visit another cousin in Kaohsiung..



It's supposed to be twenty four as a high most of next week.

There's no support here for unification with China, especially among millennials..



They look at Hong Kong and say no thank you..



There's a different mindset here from the the mainland besides being at different levels of development.

I have only been to the airport in Taipei. From what you say, I should include a trip to Taiwan in our next trip to Asia. I have heard Taiwan is very different from China.

You are getting better weather than we are on the Florida panhandle. It was only thirteen for a high today. It's supposed to be sixteen tomorrow. Nothing less than a blizzard or a hurricane will keep me off the golf course.

Mind your hands... stop yourself from touching your face, lips, or eyes, and be sure to hose down your bodies and wash your clothes (all of your clothes in your suitcase, and distance yourselves from your suitcases)... before you enter your house... strip off on the deck if necessary... don't drag stuff into your home to possibly infect... and then go down to the supermarket and do a monumental shop... if you can afford it, go for 3 months of essentials...

If it was any other country in Asia, except China, and maybe India we would have the same precautions as Australia and the states. Trudeau has his nose up the communist party of China's ass.
