In Kaohsiung for the second day today. This is not a popular place for those who have nothing more to think than shopping and clubbing and massaging and whatnot, because Taipei has all the better stuff.
Personally though, I'm content just to have the opportunity to have this "Blogging from Kaohsiung" entry put up.
Travelling with the group in this circumstances is not a good choice. It's much better to go by oneself: There is more freedom for you to go where you want to, boring places like art galleries and scenic areas, and avoid the fun and exciting places where you don't, and people drag you there against your will.
I am quite confident in using the city's subway system in getting around, after two tries. I always like doing that when navigating a city far from home. It gives a feeling of power.
