We took the High Speed Rail to Southern Taiwan to pick up Zoe at the orphanage. We were there for a couple hours then took it back to Taipei. We are here at the hotel now with her and trying to get her to settle down a little bit and take a nap. We've all been up since 5 AM and are a little wiped out. She has been chattering since we got her and I'm hoping a nap will calm her down a little. Which it has helped so far, even though she isn't asleep yet.
For all of us that were wondering, she appears to be about the same size as Shelby, although I haven't tried any clothes on her as of yet, so we'll see what happens there. As you can guess, we shot a few photos and video today. I'll be loading more this evening as I get a chance.
Here is a live video of her (not) taking a nap for your viewing pleasure! For those of you that are wondering - we are handling the language barrier as best we can. She is very happy to repeat over and over and sometimes we get it and sometimes we don't. We had a Taiwanese Escort today and she helped some, and the hotel staff speak English and are very supportive and helpful - so we continue to teach her and we get what we can.
