Took a little while but my (rather long) trip report on a recent visit to Taiwan is finally on my site: http://www.hannostamm.com
another great read Hanno - and some birds to make my mouth water - especially the pheasants. Also, I didn't realise the cuckoo-dove was on Lanyu.
Had to smile at the fact that you were interested in Taiwan because of my recommendation based on my visit to Wulai - and you never made it there!
Cheers
Mike
PS glad the English beat the French in the Rugby, and you will not have to deal with unsufferable French arrogance at work for the next few weeks . . .a and Mark will be even more delighted that S Africa beat the English to be crowned world champions.
