Taipei and back in 61 Hours-Part 7-The steets of Taipei early in the A.M.
The streets of Taipei-early in the a.m.
I had my suitcase packed strategically so I could peel clothes out in the order that I had planned to use them-no reason to waste precious time.
The next morning I was on the streets at 6 a.m. The city was waking up.

I I walked to the beautiful Chiang Kaishek Memorial–an incredible site. I met a kindly gentleman there who took pictures of me with my camera so I could prove I was actually there. Here are some photos of the memorial.

I then walked quickly through the streets, window shopped, observed a floral show, visited government buildings, bought some pastries at a bakery, and stopped for a few minutes to meditate in a peace park and wolf down the pastries!
