Meinong with Jessica!

(On the train). Wow! Our trip was crazy!!! We went to Meinong and didn't know how to get there. We walked from the bus station to the train station, back to the bus, and finally the train station. We took the train to Kaohsiung and then the bus to Meinong. It took almost 3 hours to get there.

(After we arrived, we went to have lunch. We sat at this huge table. These two older people sat next to us. They started to talk to Jessica. They are from a town right outside of Tainan. They drove us to the place to buy some paper umbrellas. Then they offered us a ride back to Tainan. Now, I'm not one for hitchhiking, but we took the ride....shhh!! Don't tell my mom!! But they were so nice. It only took us an hour to get back to Tainan compared with the 3 hours it took to get there. I actually understood when they asked me questions in Chinese. The woman was so funny!! She kept yelling at her husband!!! They invited us to their home and to go to the hot springs. Their kids are all grown up...I think we were like kids to them)!
A Hakka shopping center....and of course it's for tourists!
