First stop, Taipei.
We had an 18-hour layover there, so we grabbed a cab into downtown Taipei, saw Taipei 101, a Night Market and Longshan Temple, then got really cranky because we were exhausted and couldn’t find an open restaurant, were forced to eat in (middle-class horror!) McDonalds, then gave up and found a dodgy hotel to crash in for 8 hours before our next flight. It was swell, Taipei, but I don’t think I’ll be coming back anytime soon.
