Let's see: It's hot. It rains a lot. It smells really bad. All the crazy scooter pilots scare me.

The Sheraton is a nice hotel, stayed their a couple of times while the Sunworld workers were striking. Cheap eats can be found at the train station. I've had nothing but bad luck with Western food, stick to the Asian stuff. You can get anywhere in town from the subway. It's clean, quick and efficient, but extremely crowded around rush hour. The Chen Kai Shek memorial is interesting, but a little over done. The Palace Museum is suppose to be nice as well, but is a little hard to get to. They also have a nice bike trail system running along the rivers, with cheap rentals at various locations.
