... chatted more before deciding to head over to the night market early. Until- flash thunderstorm stopped us under the awnings. To wait it out, we stopped in a hot pot restaurant and shared several beers.
When finally the rain let up, we continued on in our search for the night market. Many blocks and questions later, we arrived- amazing! Every color imaginable, and quite clean, compared to China. Food, drink, shoes ...

So they all start yelling pi-jo, pi-jo, pi-jo! I imagine this is like being a celebrity. They are running around in circles in a frenzy. I have no idea what to do!

... a wet wipe to wash your hands at the table. We left the THL at about 5:45 to go to a formal dinner with Dr Wu and several officials from the NCKU. Dinner was at a Japanese restaurant, but was not hibatchi style. Instead the food was served like dim sum, with many dishes on a huge lazy susan. Dr Wu picked the dishes and for the most part, dinner was very tasty. The calimari was a favorite, but there was a very large variety of sea food, prepared in many ways. I ...
