[side note: I love how friendly and helpful people are here in Taiwan] the cab showed up and a few minutes of rush hour traffic down the road, we were there. turns out "very far away" and "30 minute walk" translates to 800 meters. oh well.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgxwxSD3GWK9WA-lHhn79a5oRvr9R3Zg9PgQTIjOIamH7FbfBez-MXLZ9Nh_ygth5ItQu6Fe6pFdrnrGWZS_471BWRP63SbHBdkMUV-J7n5FYi8bNcb-sM8n95yVXdFZ8jdjeBsuspoRlU/s1600/IMG_6703.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgxwxSD3GWK9WA-lHhn79a5oRvr9R3Zg9PgQTIjOIamH7FbfBez-MXLZ9Nh_ygth5ItQu6Fe6pFdrnrGWZS_471BWRP63SbHBdkMUV-J7n5FYi8bNcb-sM8n95yVXdFZ8jdjeBsuspoRlU/s640/IMG_6703.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN_CgJeIpozhD-DFMwD2eaghM_S1usBCVIe2VV4cPzCyH474uyZAUG8EoBfIWKseecwUfXR6421XSpvlZV5D06Hi23MhT8nmEmPCMH_Uyec6QG1cUpy6LBGehecTG6ano1a4ODw7jNwmbr/s1600/IMG_6704.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN_CgJeIpozhD-DFMwD2eaghM_S1usBCVIe2VV4cPzCyH474uyZAUG8EoBfIWKseecwUfXR6421XSpvlZV5D06Hi23MhT8nmEmPCMH_Uyec6QG1cUpy6LBGehecTG6ano1a4ODw7jNwmbr/s640/IMG_6704.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9AZq7qE4rgOWgYIOfHV10e9BMkI6sq_N6s2h4Mu3B_jt4_W_MYd3DuB8lleTiIHd8qZ7x9kvmi-bOng1cE4kEBZ7v7Cfw57Q_V6wWPnwJmmWMKi3l31E0IpE1AfL-FM43LM6P6IdsYi1w/s1600/IMG_6710.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9AZq7qE4rgOWgYIOfHV10e9BMkI6sq_N6s2h4Mu3B_jt4_W_MYd3DuB8lleTiIHd8qZ7x9kvmi-bOng1cE4kEBZ7v7Cfw57Q_V6wWPnwJmmWMKi3l31E0IpE1AfL-FM43LM6P6IdsYi1w/s640/IMG_6710.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2JCIGVipXil3P937jV-6rcw-M2siQI9sSVjYsh4-2ZtzzzmVUqZLVSKiZSUS3bX19KYlXhZdvwPjJ-VYEwhL3g0GHMbeedO5Dw7Tw66yiczdGoG5XyvWs-OcowEvVzR7H00Mu1HAbLu20/s1600/IMG_6715.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2JCIGVipXil3P937jV-6rcw-M2siQI9sSVjYsh4-2ZtzzzmVUqZLVSKiZSUS3bX19KYlXhZdvwPjJ-VYEwhL3g0GHMbeedO5Dw7Tw66yiczdGoG5XyvWs-OcowEvVzR7H00Mu1HAbLu20/s640/IMG_6715.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br />the food was well worth the adventure in getting there. Husband lived in Istanbul for 6 months during undergrad, and then traveled the central and eastern part of the country with a Fulbright program in 2011. he gave the cuisine his stamp of authentic approval. we had tea, goban salata, beyti kebab, lentil soup, the works. the owner/chef came out and he and Husband chatted in Turkish for a few minutes while I drank my coffee. we definitely plan to go back next time we are in town, and recommend it to anyone looking for some tasty Turkish while in Taiwan.

OR. you can take the high speed rail and be there in 25 minutes. even with the time by taxi to get from the train station to your destination, it's a no-brainer.<br /><br />also, consider that I used to take the train from Princeton NJ to New York City [only 81 km or 50 miles] and the trip took between 53 and 89 minutes depending on the time of day... the high speed rail is more than twice as fast as New Jersey Transit.<br /><br />in fact, you can travel from the north end of the island in Taipei, all the way down to the south at Zuoying in just two hours. 352 km or 219 miles. that's just shy of the distance between New York and Washington DC, and only slightly more than the distance between NYC and Boston. I can tell you I have ridden the fastest Amtrak Acela train from NY to Boston... and the trip took me 5 hours. [closer to 6 if you drive - I've done that too!]<br /><br />I feel like I've gone off on a tangent, so let me summarize my conclusions:<br />1. the Taiwan high speed rail is fast, convenient, and awesome.<br />2. I wish the US had trains that traveled this quickly.<br />3. I also wish the US had trains that traveled to more destinations.<br />4. I wish the US would have built them years ago and saved me all that airline money spent and all those 12-hour drives from Princeton to Detroit, and some serious commute time to/from NYC.<br />5. sorry my list of conclusions turned into a list of tangents.<br />6. I promise the next post about Taichung will actually be about Taichung.<br />7. can you tell my brain is fried from substitute teaching all week?<br />8.<b> thank you, and good night</b>.
