Taiwan (Part 3)

Hi, yesterday didn't post... Cos the blog dunno service down or what... Load damn long.. so i give up....

Hmmm... where have i stopped... Oh yeah... Last Day....

On day 3, at night the typhoon pass by Taiwan but Taipei is ok... Juz that the wind veri veri big... Can hear it howling from my hotel.....

In the morning, we wake up at 10am plus... Cos the curtain close... Den veri dark.... So we thought it is still early...

We look at the news, all domestic flights were cancelled and international flight either delayed or cancelled... So we were concerned if our flight got delayed..... We ask the hotel girl to call and checked for us... But the line cannot get through... Hmmm... staying for another night in Taipei sounds good.... :P

We didn't eat in the hotel, we ask the hotel guy whether there is a eatery near... Den he directed us down the street which sell "tou jian, yu tiao" their traditional breskfast... I like it veri much... cos i try b4 when i visited Taiwan like..... 10 years ago??? lol.....

So we walked down the street... The wind was veri big... It seem like someone is pushing you from behind.... We finally found the eatery... But, it is closed due to typhoon....

Almost all the shops were closed, den we saw a shop opening... selling noodles.... Therefore, we went in and ordered the "yang cui mian" and pig's intestine and dumplings..... The noodles was tasteless...... But overall ok lah....

Den we went back to the uncle, my uncle say he wan to go walk around since we still got time (flight 6pm) ... Initally, he wan to go to the Taipei 101 there to shop around... Buy something to eat on the plane since it is a 4hrs + flight...... But, the guy say Taipei 101 need to take abt 20mins there from taxi and we onli have 2-3hrs left.... Den, my uncle say wan to c the soldiers matching at the "Zhong Lei Zi"... We were unsure if there is in this weather.... But we try anyway... since it is not far....

The taxi driver is veri friendly.... He say that if he will take us there to take a look, if dun have, den he will take us somewhere.... It turned out, the gate is locked.... (there is a brunch of tourists standing in front of the gate taking photos) So, we went to "Xin Guang something" shopping centre.... Unfortunately, it didn't open too... The driver also felt weird that a departmental store never opened... And guess wat??? They have Takashimaya there too.... So we went there....

Alot of stores had masking tape their glass doors, to prevent the glass door from breaking when the wind is too strong... it is like a X pattern.....

The Takashimaya there quite small... unlike ours... I bought a jacket there for ard S$30... It is veri nice... I can wear it in the plane.. cos the aircon is quite cold there....

Next, we went to "Tian Mu", a town name... To the departmental store there..... The things they sold there is veri veri exp..... We eat at the food court... Order noodles... The soup is veri veri salty.... I ordered a bowl of yam and sago dessert.... The yam at "San Xiong Di" taste beta.....

After that, we went to look for a supermarket to buy some bread, drinks...... Den when we want to go off, i saw a mini mart and went in.... I saw the cup noodles!!! Got pork ribs one... So i grabbed 4 (2 for mi, 2 for my colleagues)... I also bought some magazines to read in the plane.... A fashion mag and a gossip mag (Yi Zhou Kan)....

We went back to the hotel and... Airport here we come....

Our flight was not delayed or cancelled... Cos the weather was beta now... So can continued.... We eat in the airport, i ordered chocolate smoothes and seafood bread soup.. The kind where by the bread covered the opening of the soup bowl.... Ok lah.. not veri good... The chocolate too dilute le.....

Finally!!! On board Jetstar.....

I am sooo tired that i fall asleep almost immediately.... I tink i slp for an hr plus... When i wake up, i tried to read my mag as i can't get to slp again.... But the plane was shaking awhile, so i cannot concentrate..... So i give up... Feeling a bit hungry so i dug into the bread and get my sandwich... When i look out of the window.... WOW!!!!! Stars... Lots of Stars!!!!! So many.... It covered the whole sky... And it looks so near..... I dun see such a scene in Singapore.......

Reach Singapore.... Going home to slp... Tired......
