Talk about being peachy keen.

Well after sleeping almost the entire day trying to get over the jetlag, we had to venture outside to get some food. After the previous days experience we were hoping things would have gotten better, but lets be honest we are talking about Emlyn and Ingrid here. Both of us were very keen on some fruit and saw a stall that sold some beautiful looking peaches, they were large so we only asked for 2. We asked the seller how much it was, and she said "three". First thing on our mind was 3 TWD (Taiwanese New Dollar), but eventually she corrected herself and continued to say 300 TWD!! THAT WAS R100 FOR TWO PEACHES! and we could not believe it, but before we could say NO THANKS we had already given her 500TWD. Let's just put that down to experience.

We also had the pleasure of meeting a Taiwanese local called John (through Ingrids many contacts), who spoke perfect English and explained the ins and outs of life in Taiwan. He is a great person to know here. He took us to a very nice Chinese restuarant, where we sampled some of the local delicacies. An absolutely great meal, which was rounded off with a trip to the tea bar where you can sample an assortment of teas. Day 2 ended very well.
