Wednesday was the last day in Taiwan. It is hard to believe that 3 weeks have gone by and now I am leaving to go home. I was happy and sad at the same time. I was excited to go home and see my family and friends but I know that I will miss everyone and everything about Taiwan! Being there for 3 weeks have changed my life. I will never forget the memories and friendships that I have created throughout my travel for the Deaflympics! It was the best experience that I ever had!!! :) We left the hotel at 12pm and our flight was at 3:45pm. We waited around a few hours to get ready for our long 11 hours flight home. On the flight home, I barely got any sleep. I purposely stayed awake so that I could be really tired when I get home. The plane ride was way too much fun! The flight attendants were like bartenders and were serving us free beer, wine, vodka. It was like a party on the plane since most of the athletes were standing around drinking and playing games. Aaron and I with some athletes played a card game called Phase 10. It was a lot of fun!

We arrived in Los Angeles around 12pm and received our luggage shortly thereafter. I said goodbye to everyone and got ready to leave Los Angeles at 4:15pm. I arrived home in Wisconsin at 11:45pm and went to bed at 1:30am. My Taiwan trip is over! :( But I hope to compete for the 2013 Deaflympics in Athens, Greece! :)
SO LONG TAIWAN!
