We have been to Taiwan since our last upload to the blog, and what a great holiday it has been. Very sadly, typhoon Marokot devasted the southern part of the island causing extensive loss of life. The number who died when mudslides completely buried a village may never be known, but a death toll of 500 is expected. We were quite safe and were able to donate a substantial part of our prize money to a typhoon diasaster relief fund.
Our planned 4-day itinerary had to be changed because all roads to the mountains were cut by the landslides. But we would ask you to follow our exploits (video clips and text) using the link: http://www.taiwanbesttrip.net/group/arthur-j-and-beth-f-gilks/intro/group-introduction-of-the-senior-australians?lang=en
And we also ask you to vote for us by registering on the taiwanbesttrip website. Here is a photo of us having breakfast at the start of Day 1.
