First thing we did once we left the hotel was to eat again! This time it was 阿宗面线. It still taste as good as before. Can I have another bowl please?
After the very satisfying breakfast, we went to Storyland where we were transported back to the old Taiwan. My mom and dad had absolute fun there reminiscing the old times.
We then brought the tyrant to 中正纪念官. It was literally burning there. Mom and I hid at the 1st floor exhibition hall while they cam whore outside. Spot the missing people in the photos!
Next stop was 淡水 where we walk the 老街 and started eating again. From 冰淇瀮, 魚丸 to 铁蛋 and 阿給.
From there, we took a ferry to 渔人码头. The ride there was horrible because the sea was quite choppy but the view there was worth it. The breeze in the air... Songs floating gently out from the nearby cafe... Lovers strolling idyllically...
We end the day at 士林夜市 where we eat again. Here are ONLY some of the food we ate.
大饼包小饼 | 棺材包
毫大大鸡排 | 婂婂月见 | 婂婂芒果
Shopping we didn't do much, but all our $$$ went to food! Argh... What is wrong with us?!?!?

hopes: TOO MUCH TAIWAN FOOD WON"T MAKE ONE FAT!
2nd Day - Taipei
We start the day off with 虾仁抄飯, 铁坂面, 抄牛肉面 and 贡丸汤.
We then went to our first site of the day- Miniature Museum. It feels like a round-the-world trip with delicate figurines and structures.
The next place we went is Taipei 101 where I believe all tourist will go. We spent ages at the observatory taking stupid photos. All of us also made use of the world highest mailbox to send postcards back to SG.
Dearie! Wait to recieve urs!!!
Next on the list was the shopping mall New York New York and Eslite. Sis made some purchases and we went off to 五分埔. It was supposedly a shopping heaven as they do wholesales there, meaning the prices would be lower than outside. However, I have just return from Guangzhou and my sis from Thailand. As what she quoted: "Been to China, here the prices seems like I'm buying from LV."
绕河夜市 is our last stop of the day.
Food, food, food! I am so not gonna weigh myself when we get back to SG.
胡椒饼 | 排骨酥面

exclaim: TAIWAN HERE I COME!!!
1st Day - Taipei
The plane ride to Taipei was horrible. We had a roller-coaster ride. People who knows me will know that I can't stomach that. Grab my sis's hands whenever the ride plunges. Taipei weather is horrid now. Its a new high temp today at 38.2 degree. The lucky thing is that we arrive in the evening when the sun is setting. Still... its hot n stuffy here.
Our hotel is great! It has a cheesy name Just Sleep Hotel but the decors are cool!
Check out the photos!
Our first meal was at 鸭肉扁 which daddy recommended. My mom thinks its not as good as before. Anyway, the last time I came to Taipei with dear, we walk past this particular shop everyday not realising that it supposedly sell good duck meat.
We ended the day with a walk around Ximending. Since everybody was feeling abit under the weather, we retire early back to the hotel with 杨 記玉米冰 and facial masks !
