Taipei

Mike and are in Taipei at the Novotel Hotel resting up after our strenuous flight from BNE.    We initially thought the flight would be entertainment free, however early in the flight a bump of turbulence, or similar, did the magic trick and fixed the system, so the flight became a 3 movie sector.   This morning we went on a tour(!!!) of some of Taipei’s special sights, the usual ancient temple, the oldest street in Taiwan and a visit to ceramic  heaven where it seemed that every shop produced its own pottery.

 

After we arrive in Vienna tomorrow morning we expect to bus to Nitra by lunchtime, where we will pick up our car and then drive to the Czech Republic to collect Mike’s glider, the same one he flew last year.    With some luck we will be in Prievidza by nightfall where the serious stuff begins.
