Arrival in Taiwan

Well, it's 2:19 late Sunday night in Taiwan. I left at 3:30 pm on Saturday from DTW with my fellow umpire Mark. We stopped over in Japan for a couple of hours about 14 1/2 hours later, and then, flew another 2 1/2 hours down to Taipei, Taiwan. From there it was going through Customs, waiting for luggage, changing currency, and then driving ANOTHER two hours to my hotel in Taichung. I will be spending the first week of the tournament in this city, while Mark is in Taipei. I have to be up and ready to go BACK to Taipei for a 10:00 am meeting, so I'm going to bed. I'll try to post more sometime tomorrow (Monday) afternoon.
