Wednesday's calendar

Taiwan Local Time

The focus here today is on tourism, the national park system, forestry, and agriculture, and we'll be visiting other areas of the island. I'm keeping an eye on Typhoon Man-Yi, which is barreling towards the coast over here but is expected to veer away within the next 24 hours.
