Cruising Update

Another quick update on the adventures of Dan, Gail, Bruce, and Pam

‘Day 111 of 274 UWC… We had the second "Royal Escape" excursion today. For all of the Full Ultimate World Cruisers Royal planned 4 special escapes included with our cruise . The 1st one was to a Winery in Montevideo, Uruguay. Today's Escape took us to "Taipei 101" Skytower. It is formerly known as the Taipei World Financial Center. It is a skyscraper owned by Taipei Financial Center Corporation. The building was officially classified as the world's tallest building from its opening on 31 December 2004. However, the Burj Khalifa surpassed Taipei 101 in 2009. Upon completion, it became the world's first skyscraper to exceed a height of half a kilometer (about 0.3 miles). As of 2023, Taipei 101 is the tallest building in Taiwan and the eleventh tallest buildin g in the world . At the bottom floor waiting for the elevator they had percussionist and 2 (2-man) Dragons and a few other puppeteers performing and taking pictures with us. They were cute .

They took us up to the 88th floor in 37 seconds (super fast elevators) and had spectacular views from there of the city 360 degrees.”
