Taiwan Taiwan!
On china airlines... comfortable flight & i finished 2 movies! :)

Our first stop upon arrival ... Yu Ren Ma Tou

The tour guide told us if we crossed this lover's bridge, we will find our true love soon. Hah, whatever!

Went dan shui lao jie to buy 铁蛋!It's actually quail eggs that's overcooked until it turned black and crunchy. Very special taste but super high in calories.
Colorful tidbits packaging with chinese names! Heh :P
We scoot off from dan shui to shilin night market for the infamous ah zong mee sua. Damn shiok to eat it in the cold.
The 3 stories high KFC in shilin.. And it's super crowded not becos of its food.. But becos it has the cleanest toilet there! Wahaha...

We went to a 路边摊 near our hotel to buy supper... 鸭血with大肠 in mala soup base.
Our standard hotel breakfast for the next few days :(
On our way to 九份 ... The scenery along the way is way beyond description :)

Narrow roads with plenty of twists & turns

Funny looking auntie selling sausages of diff flavours

Moi very first cow feeding experience @ kaoshiung ying zhang farm :)

Taroko National Park

After 3 hours of travelling, we finally reached Senwho Resort farm. Phew! :p
Learning to make ang ku kuehs
Plucking & cutting tangerines demostration :)

Grinding coffee beans and boiling coffee using this :) Coffee is best boiled using 85deg c hot water
The new friend we made in the trip who came with her bf. Nice peeps! :)

Not much entertainment in the mountains... So we rented mahjong set from the owner and PMJ through the night. Hah!

Visiting Sun Moon Lake the next morning. It was soooo cold and super foggy.

The cute couple whom we cliqued with almost immediately :)

Eskimo wanabes? Nahs, got to wear the hood to prevent our ears from frostbite.

Next, went to Martyr's Shrine where all the heroes of war were buried at. Poor soldier who got to stand still without moving for 1hr. Imagine standing still in the cold! :X

The shoes i bought back from the night markets! Woohoo! And i love my new boots! bought it for sgd $40. Cheap & good! :)

Leaving the good memories behind & embarking on a new journey...
