Back!!
i m missing taiwan.. the weather is so good, so cooling unlike here.. the people r so nice n polite n helpful...
just finish collating my travel diary of my taiwan trip. picked up this habit from the YEP expedition i went in '07. nice to write down tots n sentiments of daily happenings so that some time later when the memories of taiwan is no longer in my short-term memory, i can still refresh it whenever i feel like it..
this trip was VERY eventful. guess its the most memorable trip for most of us in the team. the first few days was tough, many unexpected stuff occured n 'bad' luck followed... some of us couldnt believe it, some of us jus LAUGHED it off.. i guess all our laughing helped, as some bad luck turned out to be blessings in disguise..
One regret is that adeline cant join us in the end after so much time, effort n $$.. sigh...
10 day Taiwan Trip!!!!
Day 1
From Taoyuan Airport, take train to hualien.. Check-in C'est Jeune Hotel.. a very affordable and small hotel.. service is personal n veri friendly. Its a art-like hotel. its small lobby has a small display of artworks. cartoon characters. bfast there is good too!
Day 2
Bad luck starts. just 2 day before, wl confirmed w our tour guide of our booking. Early morning 9am, we called her, she says she forgot n is nt free... HUH??!!!
Lucky she is responsible enough to ask another 2 tour guides to stand in for her.
started our day late. but our first blessing came about. The 2 guy tour guides were veri nice n all of us liked their approach. Compared to the female tour guide who took over us at night (she was veri bo chap)
Went to Taroko Gorge, cleared limited places due to time. But believed tt we've seen some of the best. All of us loved 水莲洞. Imagine a dark cave (need torch n poncho), natural mountain water falling frm above. natural wild wild wet. experienced tt wonderful place after clearing 7 tunnels and walked v far.. worth it :)
After trying to contact adeline for v long n failed to do so, at last she contacted us. We were outside a tunnel, if we walked in, there will b no more reception. so we stayed outside, hoping ade can quickly contact us and we can help her solve her problem. Reception was v weak. Imagine trying to get reception outside a tunnel, out in nature, on a mountain, a steep cliff beside. Haha, was realli an exp. :) Lucky the 2 tour guides were v helpful, without asking, they helped us make long-dist calls using their hp that surprisingly were the onli ones w 1 bar reception.
At last prob solved. *HAPPY*
evening, it began raining. had to skip some places. a bit disappointed but cant b helped. Tour guides brought us to the fish port for sashimi instead. It was v good!!! fresh n cheap.
too bad we didnt get to play w fireworks there.. was a miscommunication. haiz.
tried the recommended food there. some were nt bad some were so-so.
Day 3
Left Hualien. Rmb the 2 nice tour guides and we were very keen to take on their service again when we reach taiepi. Head for Chiayi, to go Alishan first.
Day 3-5
At Alishan. a place near heaven.. Veri cooling. natural aircon whole day round. we had a tea plantation at our doorstep.. whole house was ours. 2-storey. stayed at small swiss homestay. Charlies was a great guy.
Day 5-11
Back to Taipei. tried almost all big nght markets. Tonghua which is jus 5 mins frm our place. Raohe and Shilin. tried a lot of good food. Shopped a lot. changed $$ in taiwan too.. on the last day left w onli NT13 (~S60cents), hav to depend on yj to yang wo..
explored out of taipei. engaged the help of the 2 wonderful guides again (Mr Yao ZhengCheng and Mr He RenJie). by then, they were alreadi conveniently known by us as Mr Lame n Mr Nice respectively. Ultimate fun combi. with transport, we proceed w our initally planned places like chiufen, shih-fen, danshui, yeliu, keelung, jinguashi with much ease. They even bought us to places of greater fun.. Went Yingge to learn n make pottery.. (our masterpieces will b here end on June, waiting....) Sounds like we did a lot. it was all in 2 days... anyone interested in engaging their services can sms me. haha. i hav their contacts.. coz they jus started the services themselves so need a lot of recommendations, all of us 9 felt that they were sincere n fun, n veri affordable too.. they went the extra mile for us, n we were v grateful for it.
the rest of the times, we were out on our own exploring taipei city. went to 我猜 recording.. damn exciting n fun. nearly couldnt get in, lucky can still sit front row.. Jacky wu still gave us try the pies made by the contestant for 人不可貌相 :) nice!!!
