OneStar Hotel - Chang-An















We are staying at the OneStar Hotel in Taiwan. It is very nice and they have a small but interesting breakfast bar. This morning we had fried eggs, sausages, ham, rice and toast. There are also a lot of items on the 'Non-Rob Approved List' - we couldn't figure out what most of it was so we just stuck with what we knew. We also had very yummy espresso - Rob had three cups so he is wired and ready to go. We met a guy from Australia at breakfast so it was nice to have someone to chat with.

We found this sign very interesting. It definitely lets you know what to do if there is an emergency in the elevator - even if you don't read Chinese. Our favorite one is in the lower left hand corner. Enjoy!


We are off to the Jade and Flower Markets today with our new friend Kerry. One of my co-workers in Atlanta grew-up in Taiwan and he gave us the contact info for his brother and one of his high school classmates who speaks English. Kerry and Toby (his brother) picked us up at the airport last night and we are so grateful for them. They have been so very kind and generous with us and it is a privilege to get to know them. Thanks Jacob!
