a picture paints a thousand words so here goes:
day 1: reached taoyuan international airport at around 5.30? WE SAW ANDY LAU hahaha (i actually thought he was some caucasian 'cos he was so fair!)
our first picture taken in taiwan!
didn't have anywhere to stay for the first night so we just took the coach and got down at taipei che zhan. decided to stay at cosmos hotel but WHAT THE SHIT there was no way to get across the street except for an OVERHEAD BRIDGE like 100m away! CRAP. talk about exercise!!
settled into room 1121 and then went taipei main station's underground mall for a very expensive (and bad!) western dinner. oh well. at least the waffles were nice! shopped around for cheap shoes and books before heading back.
day 2: cam-whored (sk and i), watched some murder mystery on tv (sk yw sy) and checked out! proceeded to ximending to check into our 2nd hotel. speaking of murder mysteries, it's damn freaky when you travel with 3 girls who get so hooked on such shows that they exclaimed at the same time that the true murderer is the mother of some guy who died.
we also did some xi-nu-ai-le pose which i thought was too ugly to be posted up HAHA
took neoprints and then shopped at ximending after that, before heading to taipei 101.
let me advertise my fav actor first! DAMN BIG POSTER WOOHOO JOHNNY DEPP!!
stupid lamp post in the way
behold. the world's tallest building (for now). taipei 101.
in the queue for the lift going up to 89th floor
view of taipei city
then sk and i discovered that we could buy postcards and send back to ourselves, and we spent like tons of time (1.5 hours?) writing and stamping
the box which we dropped our postcards into
when we were finally done, we went up up up to the 91st storey, the OUTDOOR observatory
2 storeys make all the difference in size of cars/buildings
sk trying to get a jump shot. this was probably the 15th attempt
then we decided to get SUPPER at ximending. donuts + corn + hotdog + some jap food thingy
donuts from mr donut. famous but only a few flavours are worth trying.
had some supper party thingy before going to sleep.
day 3: headed to leofoo village in the morning. waited damn long for the bus there
bus tickets
the most exciting ride there, since the roller coaster was down for maintenance =/
beer version of the turning teacup thingy
suggestive pose HAHA sorry edison
MY FAVOURITE RIDE
