True. After a while, the dark roots start growing out.
Yes, but that means you would have to get to know them first and who wants to be friends with idiots.
Iām assuming the method Brian was referring to would be much faster, and much more stimulating. You still probably wouldnāt want to be friends with them though.
Now that made me properly LOL.
Not that other posts in this thread didnt make me properly lol.
Dude, youād better have a doctor look at that.
Sometimes root doesnāt mean what you think it does. Then again, sometimes it does. In that case, you can be sure that the girl isnāt a blondeā¦and also that she isnāt a girl.
Iām rooting for this method then!
Any idea why such descrepency in wind speeds in google search results for Green Island weather?
If I search for Green Island weather it shows 21 km/hr at 10am. But when I go to weather.com link it shows
Wind
NNE 43 mph
i.e. 69 km/hr!
Lion has offices all over Taiwan. If they say they cannot do it, it is really because they cannot do it. Mostly, I am very pleased with their services as they are on the ball.
If you go to to Taipei Main Station, there are a myriad of kiosks on the main foyer. EZTravel is also a big one, try them.
Depending on your destination, a B&B might be a better choice if hotels are all booked. Airbnb time, perhaps? There are really cool choices out there, and if you have transportation overed by the travel agency, an Airbnb place is more relaiable than a usual B&B, unless it is a long standing one. My 
EDIT
If you are going to Taitung -envy you!- then definetively try to get air ticket or train ticket through agency, maybe book a tour, but a B&B will be more enjoyable and economical.
The hotelās are not all booked. Itās their system that does not allow them to book later than four days before the trip.
Ask Lion Travel to give you the hotel name/address/contact info and book straight from the hotel. The price shouldnāt be that big of a difference via a travel agency. Tell them your situation (with Lion Travel) and maybe theyāll give you the travel agency discount, you never know!
Got that, but still, even if you choose to call and book by yourself, it might be tight. Try anyways.
There are myriads of B&Bs in Taitung:
We stayed here:
I loved their breakfast.
It looked pretty tasty till I saw the squiggles of mayo on the saladā¦ewww.
Tough customer.
How about more traditional fare?
I am telling you, man, those taro mantou -the purple steamed bread balls on the right- were heavenly. To this day, I havenāt found anything remotely similar/tasty in Taipei.
Is wanting mayo squiggle-free food too much to ask? I mean, itās not even real mayo. Those congee fixins donāt look too bad though. Love the Spanish peanuts.
You are talking to a Latina. We put mayo, not ketchup, in our fries. So I want mayo. I do not mind its presence but its absence.
You mean joining the tour? I canāt possibly join any of their tours now because the system. They are not interested either so imnnot going to insist. Next time . I took some leaflets about traveling to aborigines but Iām afraid most trips with travel go to Alishan. At least thatās what they have printed for me.
Iām not going to Taidong now. I bought a ticket for tonight to Tainan and will lol for a hotel there. And from there Iāll go to some mountains or maybe Iāll just stay in the city for three days.
Gee, thanks for the mental image. Now Iām gonna have to cancel my plans for burgers and fries tonight! There should be laws against stuff like thatā¦unless youāre like Belgian or something.
My coworkers have recommended me several times the Evergreen Laurel in Tainan.
OTOH, there is a famous foreigned owned hostel in tainan which they say it is pretty cool.
Check out the Anping area. Enjoy.
Thank you ! Iām going to enjoy myself alright.
My bf read this thread and he doesnāt want me to go to taidong without him. He is probably concerned about the area mentioned full of whitey males.
