Say Hi to Juddles for me.

Construction zone as NTL goes international.

Arriving late morning, so hopefully will miss the storms at airport, but meeting school friends at 4pm at South bank, may have to add travel umbrella.

I booked exit row, so not going to move forward, especially on an Embraer 190.

1 week and we will be sitting in the non existent lounge at NTL, choice of Red Rooster or sandwich..... Can only hope that with the extension to international flights, we might get at least 1 lounge.

My husbands (Congewai) jackets will catch their eye.

We will be there in exactly 1 years time. Glad to hear the weather is still nice into October.

Ditto for Zion NP, some lovely walks.

Please include me and Congewai for both dinners - Friday and Saturday nights.

Paid balance of cruise this morning. Our next 2 trips are both AFF: Brisbane gathering and this cruise. We lay low then until our big trip next September 2025.

Hubby home, and now able to get the missing photos from his phone. Below some images from our walk around Lotus Lake. Our Business Class seats on the HSR (high speed rail) Lotus Lake is only a short walk from the HSR terminal, but a fairly long walk around the entire lake. That...

Next was our final day, flying out late that night. Now, up till then we were not overly impressed with our accommodation, it was OK, but not worth the price. Then we found what made this place worth it..... When you check out, (12pm) you may have the use of their "waiting room" on the first...

Very short ferry ride out to the island. A walk around the fort and light house, and one of the temples near the wharf. We then headed north up to Lotus Pond lake and walked around the lake. Just found that the photo from the lake have not come off the phone, will have to post later images...

Our next day was to have been our trip to Hualien which got cancelled, instead we took the fast train (280 - 300km per hour) down to Taiwan's 2nd largest city Kaohsiung and going out to their "island" beach and light house. As mentioned earlier, it is so easy to travel around Taiwan. Zuoying...

The next day was our 40th wedding anniversary, I had booked on-line a week prior a restaurant at the top of Taipei 101, I asked reception to call and confirm our booking, only to be told that they never received the reservation and that they were fully booked. The other restaurant at the top was...

Next day we chose the Maokong Gondola - hoping it might be a bit cooler out of the city. Metro to the Zoo station, then a short walk to the gondola station. There is a choice of normal gondola or the "crystal" which has a glass floor. There was a 30 minute wait for the crystal, so we opted for...

We arrived too early for check-in, but were able to leave our bags at reception and set out walking around. Just down the street is the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, a monument to authoritarian leader Chiang Kai-shek. There is a changing of the guard several times a day. A free museum is...
