Freedom:Trip to Taiwan(ii)
7th Dec 07(updated)
Early in the morning,about 0630 I was already woke up by my parents.The hotel's morning call is only 0700!Damn,sometimes I don't understand why they need to make me wake up so early.Back in Kuching here too.
After breakfast,the bus arrived with our guide and we proceeded to National Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall(中正纪念堂).The day we were to visit there,they are about to remove the four words on the gate which is 大中至正 and change it to 自由广场.Since it's a politic issue so the media were of course were there to interview and stuff,people who are against the removal of the four words were of course there to make things hard.So,safety first,we were not allowed to go down.Only took some pictures in the bus.Now 大中至正 has become history.
Visited the Martyr's Shrine(忠烈祠)It's a place to view an elaborate ceremony of changing guards hourly.Hehe.Took a group photo at here too.
Next destination is Yehliu Scenic Spot(野柳).It's a natural rock formations of Yehliu.The wind was very strong so basically the pictures people took were of course with messy hair.But I must admit that the scenery there was really pretty.
Then,we were transfered to Chiufen Village(九份) to see the old fashioned way of life that still exist.We had our lunch here too.Most of us ate the beef noodles and it's really really yummy.They have lots of yummy food in this single street.Seriously.Too bad it's always raining at here.Including the day I visited there.And my socks and shoes got wet.Grrrr.

After we were back to Taipei,we went to Taipei 101 shopping mall(台北101).It was the tallest building in the world but was beat by Dubai's tallest building so it has now became the second tallest building in the world but still the tallest in Asia.Nothing much shopping can be done here since it's a more classy shopping centre with all the branded items.
Then,we went to ShihlinNight Market(士林夜市).Tried the fried chicken which is really yummy and huge!As my shoes and socks were still wet so naturally my mood wasn't that good but my mood is better after I bought some toys.=)
Then we went to some restaurant to try out the Tie-Mu-Zhen Mongolia BBQ Meat Steamboat and Yan-Yang Spicy Buffet.I like it!I don't know how to describe it but I just love it.
Dinner is the last in the schedule list but after that a few of us planned to go to Hsimen-Tin(西门町)with Flolina.(since she's the only one who knows how to go to Hsimen-Tin from our hotel)I followed even my shoes and socks were wet.Why?Because I've heard of Hsimen-Tin and I knew that our hotel was very near to Hsimen-tin.If I knew all these and I din't get to visit it,my bad atiitude will kill you.
12 something in the midnight then we reached hotel.I had a hot bath then went to sleep.Surprisingly,Sam smsed me when I was shopping at Hsimen-Tin,kor kor smsed me when I was bathing,Siti Rashidah and Nadiya smsed me the day before.How come nobody ever sms me when I was so lonely back at home?!
