I left Schiphol Airport on monday the 25th of june at 7:45 pm (local time) heading for Taiwan's capital, Taipei. We flew to Bangkok first, where we had to leave the plane for 1 hour as it was refueled and cleaned. Then we flew to Taipei, landing there on tuesday the 26th of june at 5:30 pm (local time). I had spent a total of 15 hours on a plane and because of the time difference (6 hours), my body felt as if it was awake for 24 hours.
My ride to the hotel was waiting for me, as I was taken to the Fortuna Hotel for 2 nights. I arrived there at around 6:45 pm and checked into my room. I took a shower and then went out to get a bite to eat. After a small dinner in a restaurant, I went to my hotel room to sleep, as I was very tired from the flight and time difference.
As soon as my face landed on the pillow, I was off to dreamland. A phone call interrupted my sleep and as I figured it was morning, I said "Good morning" only to discover it was still 10:00 pm the same day! It was the tour guide for the round trip of the island, welcoming me and telling when I would be picked up when the tour of the island would start. I listened and wrote down the information, despite my sleepy state and as I put the horn down, I fell right back to sleep. I had a great night's sleep!
