Taiwan Trip 2015: Day 6 - 8

Day 6

Xy and I felt a tiny bit better, but we still felt crappy actually.
Nevertheless, we didn't wanna waste yet another day so we braved the discomfort and headed out to explore!
We visited wufenpu WAY TOO EARLY and had to sit at 7-11 for an hour plus for the shops to open LOL. and we didn't buy anything because the fashion was..... meh
Popped by this super famous braised pork rice place for lunch:

Formosa Chang 鬍鬚張魯肉飯 (五分埔)
No. 533號, Yongji Road, Nangang District, Taipei City, Taiwan 115



The famous 卤肉贩 was only $1.50 per bowl I think? But it kinda disappointed just cause the one we at at the mushroom restaurant was way nicer. And there was too much fats!

Still yummy. Just overhyped
Next, we decided to visit Miramar Entertainment Park which was boring! Just went there to look for this shop but they only sold ladies apparel HAHAHAHA.

Then we wanted to visit Taipei 101 (so mainstream but whatever) and gave up when we saw the price tag. I mean $40 for a ticket was just wrong.

so we did what we could do..... Taking selfies downstairs HAHAHAHA

The weather was amazing tho, bright and sunny!
We decided to visit Shilin after dropping stuff that we bought from the supermarket and letting the 2 casualties (wongsie and me) to rest for a little. Tbh we felt damn bad for being such burdens but oh well..... NO MORE EXPIRED YAKULT FOREVER.


 But for some reason, Shilin was so...... underwhelming and boring. Did not enjoy it at all.



This was my face throughout the day. So miserable cuz I wanted to enjoy but I felt like shit

Day 7

LAST FULL DAY IN TAIPEI and it was time for our hired cab to bring us around 十分,九份 & 平溪!
I felt way better and was super glad that I got to enjoy our final day before we fly off!
As usual, we were late while our driver was really early and waiting for us near our apartment HAHAHA but off we go!

So our first stop was this geopark but it was so crowded and we weren't interested so we decided to leave for somewhere else HAHAHA. the view was awesome though ;-)

The boy had to buy drinks non-stop cuz he was always thirsty HAHAHA 

Then we hopped on our cab to the next destination: 
阴阳海


As you can see, the name of this sea is derived from the copper particles present in the water that flows from a river to the sea, which stains the sea water and it is absolutely gorgeous, with streaks of gold dancing in the blue-green sea.

Best thing about having a hired cab, the drivers take awesome photos HAHAHA.
黄金瀑布


So damn gorgeous right?

九份老街


So i was walking out of this tea shop that the guys were grabbing tea and suddenly heard this very familiar voice calling me. AND OMG I WAS SO FREAKING EXCITED TO MEET POLY IN TAIPEI LAH you know how awesome it feels to meet someone you know overseas?!?

❤❤❤ haven't seen her since forever


And we found the famous popiah ice cream roll hahaha

didn't really like it but the others did so oh well

I was so damn glad that the weather was glorious ❤


AND after shopping for a while WE FINALLY WENT TO GET MY 凤梨酥 which was the MUST-GET item on my list cuz they're so damn yummy ❤

李仪饼店


They sell the best pineapple cakes and I love them so much I bought like 5 boxes HAHAHA

Went to another waterfall which I forgot its name

So there was a signage on the swing that states: PLS DO NOT SWING HARD ON THIS SWING, and guess who had to try it out? -_- HAHAHA typical guy

and then we visited the extremely mainstream but super gorgeous:
十分老街


kx was pinching my face 

the flurry of action when the train arrives, I still dont understand how everyone can keep everything before the train comes HAHAHA

The shop owner was like: come hurry let's take a photo before the train leaves!



Then I forgot where we went again, think Ruifang or i dunno

  (acting like gangsters LOL)


And we went home

Mango and pudding shaved ice! I LOVE THE PUDDING LAH
and at night we had a wonderful apple/pear cider night which made yj speak nonsense while kaixiang fell asleep before it even started LOL and it was just so fun ;-)

DAY 8:

Our last breakfast and everyone didn't really wanna leave :-( I really missed them it was like a big family, all warm and cozy

and we left our apartment and headed to the airport in this bigass luxury van ❤
we felt like a superstar HAHAHAHA

bags and bags of stuff (most of them were mine)

Bye taiwan, we will miss you and will definitely visit again!!!!! ❤


Taiwan was so damn amazing and till now i still wanna go back but oh well. Shall start saving up!
