Taipei 25/5/08

25/5/08 (Taipei City ->Ximending->Longshan Temple->Taipei 101 ->TngHua NightMarket)

Good morning, i had a good sleep..haha,,but my hb said he don't..don't know why...but i an sleep can liao.

Taipei sunrise very early leh. 6am plus bright liao. Then we 8pluswent to have breakfast in house.
Then we set off from our hotel on foot. Took awhile before we found Ximending. Cos eventhough got road sign but still can't figure which way it pointing. Then hor when crossing road using traffic light..haha..when red man keep flashing means traffic light spoil liao. Don't be sill standing there waiting for it to turn to green man.
Finally reached Ximending at around 10am and all shops still not open yet. So we decided to catch a moive - Indiana Jones. Cos it a early moive so it only cost 200TWD each and pop corn + drink at 70TWD. Then show finished at 12.30pm. Then we went toilet and i found that the toilet very unique. Normally i will clean the toilet seat cover but thise toilet i dun have to. I need oni to push a lever then the plastic cover covering the toilet seat will change to a new one. Ai ya...too i don't have a camera with me.
After the moive, we walked onto the Ximending street...wow...every shops open liao and alot of people. Then we went to look for food but all very long Q if not it full house. Want to try the japan food shop but Q till outside so in the end we went to eat DIM SUM. We ordered abit of the dim sum and order their promotion Crab 米粉/冬粉. Very delicious. Yummy...
Wow..., now is 11.30pm. We been out for 13hrs liao.Today outing very tired cos most of the time we walked. And today spent the MOST man. We changed about 8300TWD and spent most of it but i kept 2000TWD with me.

After our lunch, we took MRT to LongShan Temple. It very big and alot of pple. We kus went in and pray then go liao cos weather is turning grey and other places alrdy raining.

We walked to LongShan Temple Mall (which it underground one) to see what we can buy. At therewe bought some poker card (mickey n winnie the pooh), puzzle for benjy n Ashley ans a pair of slippe for me. Lucky bought that one if not i can't walk for so long. Very comfy. Then hb bought 2 compass. From here we took the MRT to TaiPei City Hall cos we are going to see the TaiPei 101.

Hai...ho knows it raining still when we reached. The Tapei 101 still have to walk a distance and we didn't bring the umbrella out with us(it at the hotel). So we went back to the MRT and see wherelse we can go. Then we saw the 新光三越 shopping mall. It at other exit so we walked there. Lucky there is a shelter along hte wat to the mall.


Haha..tell you huh. there are another 3 shopping under that name and the differential with A9, A8, A11. And all tese 3 malls have link walk between eac others. We walked passed the rest but went in to the 1st one.
From there we then walked to Taipei 101. By the time we reached, it alrdy 6pm liao. An we were so tired and hungry. Andi thought we willbe having dinner at the nightmarket which we don't know where yet.


Dinner was very nice. We had omettle oyster set which come with soup and a plate of vegeable at 110TWD. We also ordered chicken omettle rice at 160TWD also very delicious.


We didn't walked the shopping except their supermarket and bought some..eh..eh.. food that we never eat before. Haha..try lor and not cheap lor cost us 1000TWD for those. Then hb want to try the roast eel in a can and so he bought that at 32TWD which is cheaper than those sell at the Family Mart.


ok..so now we wat to go to the TongHua nightmarket at AnHe Rd. So i let hb lead the way....hai..whose knows a person knw how to drive and still don't know how to read the map and go the wrong way. Don't know how he read one and walked to Sun Yat Sen Memeorial Hall which is at the north and the nightmarket is at the south. Hai...in the end, it me who brought us there. And cos of that we waste about 1hr plus. Image, it took us almost 2hrs to reach that nightmarket. We have to cross the street, up the bridge and down (think 2 bridges)...AI YOI.... my poor leg so tired liao and my back very 酸.
Finally finally, we reached!!!

Hmm...like singapore basar malam. Alotof things and food. but we only drink the bubble tea, 鸡糕蛋 (in cute shapes) and taiwaes sausage (not nice leh). Too tired to stop a tevery store to see and too many people. We walked from one end to another then it time to find LiChangLi Mrt which is not very near lor. And it took us another 1hr or so before we found it. SUPER TIRED AH....
