Waiting things out here in Taiwan. I did plan on heading to the South this weekend but several things have happened, not the least of which is Typhoon Fanapi, due to hit the island late Sunday night. People are already stocking up on water and food and they are talking about pre-emptively closing businesses and schools on Monday. This could screw up holiday plans for some folks, who may have wanted to celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival / Moon Festival / Zhongqiujie (technically the 22nd, Wednesday) over the weekend. If the typhoon does hit it will be the first to cross the island this year.
Now--off to buy me some bottled water...
