first thing after breakfast in the morning.. we took the High Speed Rail (HSR) to Hsinchu.. there we went to the chenghuang temple first where there were many taiwanese local snacks such as their famous meatball noodles.. then we went to the chung-hwa pui-shiou museum where we listened all abt fengshui and the suan ur name wan.. den dey wld be able to tell ur characteristics.. ohw ell.. then we went to a shop which sold purely tarts.. of course got different flavours.. we bought 3 boxes.. but guess what lar.. got some other families in our tour grp bought 3 boxes.. sounds the same but actually it's 3 big boxes.. lol.. those big kind of cardboard boxes.. then we went for lunch at a super special place.. afterall it was going to be our last meal together as a tour group.. and yup.. the restaurant is called wu jiao chuan ban.. served the best food so far.. yup..
den we went to the Taipei 101.. the tallest skyscraper in taiwan.. there was a shopping mall there too.. and again.. we didnt buy anything.. just another high-end shopping mall..
next we went to what they called the fisherman's wharf.. dere.. they had the lovers bridge or otherwise known as the ai qing qiao.. and it was super cold!! due to the winds lar i guess.. u can feel the coldness lyk right into ur blood lor.. it was that cold.. this was where they filmed liu xing hua yuan.. and yup.. it was a romantic place to be alright.. but many of us didn't wan2 stand out in the cold weather too long so all of us were back in the bus 10 minutes before the time given by the tour guide.. lol ..
after that we went to the shihlin night market.. where we ate oyster omelette.. chicken fillet.. and fried rice for dinner.. not bad lars.. although the chicken fillet was a little salty.. oh well..
so it was back to fortune hotel.. probably the 2nd best hotel after the first night's hotel.. went to look for streets to shop wif a few other families we made friends wif.. but all were close and we didn't really know where to go.. so only my sis bought 4 pairs of sox frm one shop that was lyk the only shop open among the few shops that were open..
wahh.. tmr morning to wake up so early lars.. cos need to be at the airport early.. haiyo.. better slp early.. although it's quite late already..
