Taiwan

A lot of how this trip is going to be evolving is shrouded in the unknown; our descent into Taiwan was just as mystifying. 

It's barely morning now (5:49am local), but we arrived before the sun.  Upon our descent into the city, I found the landscape to be both inviting and mysterious, with mountains and rises in the countryside only visible because they would obscure the city lights behind them.   The mere suggestion of mass and matter. Taiwan is suggestion.

On the other hand, we will be leaving for Fukuoka out of the Hello Kitty themed Airport Terminal...so there's that...
