There are two parks, Central Park and Veteran's Park. Central Park initially had 8 more than half the number of trash cans as Veteran's Park. Then, one night, someone took half of the trash cans from Central Park and put them in Veteran's Park. If originally there were 24 trash cans in Veteran's Park, how many trash cans are now in Veteran's Park? Let's think step by step and output the final answer within \boxed{}.
