Day 357-358: September 20-21, 2025 – Tainan, Taiwan
Colorful port entertainment in Tainan, our last stop in Taiwan.
We left Taiwan earlier than planned to stay ahead of Typhoon Nando brewing in the Philippine Sea. (Blue dot is where we are, red shows path of typhoon). The ship is rocking and rolling more than usual today (I had to put on my sea bands this morning), but other than that it looks like we’ll be out of its path soon as we head south towards Manila.

When I saw the Odyssey zooming southward at 15 knots I knew it was trying its hardest to get out of Nando’s path — and it did! Let’s hope that’s enough typhoon excitement for awhile. I think you’ll enjoy Subic Bay. My husband enjoyed the island very much when he was there in the Navy in the early 1960s when the US had two large bases in that area — Clark Air Force Base and Subic Bay Naval Base, neither of which exists as US bases anymore.
So much Color!!!
O boy out-running a storm…
So fun!!!
Stay safe. Hang in there! Thanks for the graphics.. looks like you should be ok….
We got out of that one safely, No doubt, there will be more to come.
Love the Micky Mouse Gloves with that one costume. Love the colors over there!!! Hopefully the Typhoon will stay on its path as you travel south !!! I will be watching!
That’s funny, I didn’t even notice they were Mickey Mouse gloves. You’ve got a keen eye, Shannon.
It looks like you are in what is called the cone of uncertainty= 2/3 probability it will stay that way and 1/3 it will change. The send-off in Taiwan looks like a lot of fun, and you look great.
Yes, there was always a chance it would change. But we managed to outrun it.
I am so used to the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico hurricane season, but I didn’t know that the Pacific side is even more active.
