Taiwanese Tidbits

• They drive on the right
• Nicely and without use of the horn (usually)
• Time here is GMT + 8 (same as Malaysia)
• Electricity is oddly 110 V (we hired a converter that we're using for the laptop but both shaver and toothbrush aren't having any of it)
• It's not a hot at the moment, perhaps mid to late twenties and it gets dark around 18:00
• English is understood but more so by the kids or people in the tourist business
• Everything is in Chinese characters and finding English translations are rare
• The people are very private but friendly and smile a lot- which is very nice
• No fear of violence or robbery, it is entirely safe
• Prices are more expensive than Bangkok and the city reminds me of Kowloon/Hong Kong and Macau
• We like it- a lot  :o)
