The long awaited Taiwan 7 days 6 nights trip is finally here. I'm filled with exhilaration and excitement. Its a tour guided trip and the best thing I like about guided tour is that their itinerary is always so enticing and full of activities thus we don't have to rack our brains to decide which places to go, where to eat and stuff like that. Guided tour helps us to settle them=X Listening to the tour guide talking is also quite interesting and enabled us to gain new insights. OKie...enough of the short intro, now I'm embarking on the first day of my Taiwan trip. Taiwan Here I Come:)



(See my over-the-clouds expression taken on the plane)

Btw, I'm taking China Airlines flight and the plane I seriously say is not too bad. Spacious seats, great food and the service is good too. Now I wont be bias against any China Airlines. Oh well...gosh I have to change my perception. After the 4 and a half hour flight, me and my family arrived at Taoyuan International Airport. The weather was cooling, temperature was at 18 degrees Celsius and not as cold or windy as I expected. The airport was ok only, not as goody as our Changi International Airport, that is one aspect that makes me feel proud as a Singaporean. Yeah! Our Spore tour guide is called Jia Wen and the Taiwanese tour guide is called 'Danny'. Funnily its called ""Teh Ni"" He asked us to call him xiao diao instead. Weird, always whenever I go travelling, the names of the tour guides is always very funny.
Time now is around 8 plus and my stomach is rumbling. Cant wait for all the delicious food sold in the night markets..(saliva dripping) We checked in to our first hotel- Evergreen. The location is fantastic. Wait till u see the pics then u know why.

-First Stop: Keelung Night Market
We have to settle our dinner here. Looks like in Taiwan they wont bao all the dinners coz there are really too many mouth-watering street snacks or us to savour.
There are really many many many different kinds of food like smelly bean curd, desserts, pig blood, toast, oyster, hot dogs, sotong balls etc.



(First pic of the night-NICE)

I ate strawberry shave just to cool down myself as It was kind of hot. Hahaha and some lotus green bean and tried hot dogs which was not that fantastic as I was feeling a bit of exhausted. Btw, we have to make our way back to the hotel ourselves as no transport was provided. Thus, me and my cousins have to make our way back ourselves with the help of the map. Wow, makes us feel independent.



(Strawberry shave, wanted to try the mango one but they say don't have)

And.... our hotel is near the shipyard. Im living so close to the sea. Magnificent View=X





Time now is 1130pm and we need get up at 530am. Morning call is at 6am. Tml would be the hot spring and the Shangri-la farmstay. Will update the second day later as there are too much to say. Hahaha..
