long weekend in taiwan.. i expected something very much different from mainland china - a vibrant small country striving to
remain independent from its big brother - but if sb threw me out of a plane without telling where we are, I'd say
"i'm in mainland china".. taiwan turned out to be more than similar, perhaps except for full characters on street ads..
