Days 24 & 25 ~ Free Time and National Taiwan University

After arriving in back in Taipei the night before, day 24 was spent resting and catching up on papers and other projects that had been put off during our travels around the island.  I only left my room to order and pick up pizza from Pizza Hut.  Day 25, the beginning of our final week in Taiwan was spent at National Taiwan University listening to research seminars given by graduate students and our program instructor.  We then had a tour of the research labs and went to dinner with the grad students.  A heaping plate of stir fried cabbage and two veggie and pork buns later the group split and a few of us headed back to Shilin Night Market to do some shopping to try and find a few final gifts for friends and family.
