Nov 20, 2005 - Taipei Sightseeing

A coworker and I are in Taipei right now on a business trip but having arrived on Sunday morning, we spent the day exploring the town in between light rain showers. Not a very big city, so we grabbed a couple of subway passes and basically went from the West end of town to the East where Taipei 101 and our hotel is.
