Were here!

        so we made it! yippee. it is pretty much awesome here. Here's what has happened so far. We boarded a plane, flew across the ocean, landed in taiwan, exchanged some money, bought a bus pass, hoped on a bus, met a dude at the train station, rode a train for 3 hours, squished 7 bags into a little honda, took it all to the house, ate some dumplings, drank a smoothie, ate some ice cream, went shopping, ate some chicken, ate some bread, ate some shaved ice stuff, went to sleep.That's about it. The food here is pretty dang good, in case you didn't know.

 Here's some interesting facts about this asian island:
 -everybody rides a scooter.
-no one follows the traffic laws (or maybe there are none here, the supposedly have a sixth sense)
-the clothes are cheap.
 -the food is cheaper.
 -it is 100 times more humid than Hawaii, i'm seating because i'm typing.
-smoothies are a dollar -the shaved ice is amazing
 - Chinese is hard to understand, especially when you don't know it.
- all the websites on my computer decided to translate themselves into chinese
 - i love it here!

 so yes, i will keep you posted... whoever is reading this.

 love nans.
