Our Journey to Hong Kong began at very early at 5:15am when we woke up to get ready for our 45minute ride to the Taipei International Airport. We arrived early and figured out how to get our tickets. When I went through immigration I waited at the booth while the lady swiped my passport. Then she got on the phone and this man came. He didn't explain what was going on, he just took my passport and motioned that I follow him. I was really nervous because my Mandarin is terrible and Alan was already through. I was super confused because I got into the country just fine so what was the problem now with me leaving? They took me into this back room and photocopied my passport then we went to this other booth where I stood for 10 minutes while this old man tried to figure out how to do something on the computer. Then this younger guy came and helped him and I got my passport back and the ok to go. We were on our way to Hong Kong!!!
