Places to swim in Taiwan? (and detraining question)

This year I returned to regular swimming workouts after a 20-year layoff, and am finally starting to get back in shape. However, I will be traveling in Taiwan for about a month from late May to late June. I would hate to lose all my conditioning on that trip and have to start again from scratch when I return. By that time I will have about 5 solid months of averaging around 10,000 yds per week spread out over 3-4 workouts built up. Do you think my swimming conditioning will all be lost if I don't swim at all during the trip? I plan to buy some stretch cords and take those with me so I can do some swimming-like movements, but I would really like to swim several times throughout the trip. I've noticed a poster (Syd) who is located in Taiwan, and perhaps some of you have traveled there... Does anyone know if it is difficult to find a pool to swim laps in Taiwan? I'll be traveling back and forth between Taipei (Tung-Hu) and I-lan. Syd, where in Taiwan are you located? Thanks, Mark
