The team is safe and sound here in Taiwan

There was an earthquake here but very small in the area we are at right now. It was larger in an area south of us. When it happened we were out riding bicycles at an man made wetlands. We never felt it but were informed by our hosts.
The bike ride was very nice and it felt good t do some exercise. We take some time to have a little fun on a bicycle built for two. There are 3 man made wetlands at present but they are constructing more of these to help with the very strained water system and the stress that the largely populated area puts on the water system. After yet another amazing lunch where we were afforded the time of an impromptu Mandarin lessons from our great hosts. We are all hoping to be able to put a few sentences together at the end of the trip. The team then moved onto the Lin family gardens. This very old established family had famous courtyard homes built here back in the 1700's. The family has moved on and donated the amazing compound to the city to open up the public for tours.
