Perhaps he knew, as I did not, that the Earth was made round so that we would not see too far down the road. - Karen Blixen

Taipei 101

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taipei_101

Some pictures of Taipei 101--until this year, the tallest building in the world--and views from the observatory deck on the 89th floor. The high-speed pressurized elevator inside the building travels 1,010 meters/minute and it takes only 37 seconds to go from the 5th to 89th floors.

One of the coolest things about it is that the colors on the building each night are different depending what day of the week it is. I went on a Friday, which means, blue.

Monday - Red
Tuesday - Orange
Wednesday - Yellow
Thursday - Green
Friday - Blue
Saturday - Indigo
Sunday - Violet
