The Coast Guard Model UN team has finally arrived in Taipei! After a grueling 15 hour flight from New York City, over the North Pole, and to Hong Kong followed by a short flight to Taipei, we arrived at about 9:30 pm local time (8:30 am EST) After checking in and unpacking in the hotel, it really started to sink in that we're standing halfway around the world from our home! After a much needed night of rest, the team is up and getting ready for opening ceremonies later this evening, and is looking forward to exploring the city and the rest of the island.
