Three words: Tired, sweaty, and\u2026 I forget the third. It\u2019s about 11:30 pm here now and 10:30 am in Montana, putting me at 13 hours ahead. I\u2019ve been awake now for just over 25 hours, so further details and emails will come after a long snooze. But for those dying to know: I made it.<\/p>\n

My thanks to my sister Eve for hosting me in LA\/Catalina Island and to Gina who came all the way out to the Taipei airport tonight to greet me. Traveling can be stressful at times, but with family and friends along the way, it\u2019s also great fun.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow? Some exploring.<\/p>\n
