Getting home: There will be FREE buses back to the Hongshulin MRT from the party (every 10 minutes).  Last 10 buses will go directly to LUXY, Taipei at Chung-hsiao E. Road, where guests will be offered discounted 1/2 price admission.

Staying over:  We have arranged for a great deal at> a hotel within a short walk from the party.  It is not a big hotel so you need to make reservations early.  You get a 25% discount if you tell them that you are attending the Canada D'eh beach party. For details
