School Reporting day so class started later than usual. These late mornings are really nice every now and again. No class till 10:00 am
7:30 Traditional Chinese Market : I asked my host mother to take me grocery shopping with her but she said we could not do it all in one stop like Americans do. She suggested that this morning she would go to a market that it was easy to park at. This market still had plenty of things to offer my western senses. Let me tell you something, I was expecting smells and sounds, but let me tell you this market was very well kept and clean. I would have eaten anything from there (once it had been properly cooked of course). And eat it we did. We had the very fish we bought for dinner, eye ball and all! Yum yum!
9:30 School to prepare for the classes
12 Lunch at HOT POT! WOOOO! (See hot pot entry)
2:30 pm Adventure to change American Express Travelers checks : FAIL. Absolute FAIL. The office was guarded by a security person who did not speak any English and would not let me into the office to speak to anyone in English. Banks etc do close at 3 pm so there is a good chance the office was closed and we had a technical fail. At any rate there was a beautiful cloudy view of the 85 floor building here in Kaohsiung.
