Summary of my Taiwan trip

Its has been a great 1, as 1 of my sec school classmate puts it "poof" from work during my bday and when I told him I did better that I "poof" from SG, boy he was impressed. Haha.

We set out with an open heart, not knowing how the weather is though it was pretty hot for the past few days prior to us leaving (I checked their weather everyday) and my colleague msg me on the day we were due to fly out (she came bak from Taiwan on tat day) saying temperature dropped a far bit when she took off tat morning. The idea was welcoming nevertheless I packed summer clothes and 2 thick sweaters just in case.

Yilan was good, much better than I expect. Hubs, on the other hand had no expectations (of anywhere for that matter)as he did not know where we will be going for the whole trip. Gave him a brief idea only, 2 nights in Yilan, 3 in Taipei, 2 in Taichung and finally going back to Taoyuan for departure. Not that he is interested in the minor details. Hur.

It was the 3rd visit to Taipei and yet there is so much we have not seen and been to.But I finally get to see my Calla Lilies in YMS and plus a bit of cherry blossom. I cannot describe how much I loved Spring time Taiwan. Photos cannot replace what you see with your eyes, or maybe is the photos I took. Heehee

Taichung came abit of culture shock to us as we did not expect the place to be so big, I realli meant BIG. Feng Jia night market is 45min away by bus, SML is 2hrs away by bus, Jiji line is 1 and half hr away by train, 姗姗姐's place is an hr away from where we stayed though it is still in Taichung. Man, as much as I love to explore more, we simply do not have all the time in the world. Yilan and Taipei is much more smaller in comparison.

Though Hubs is complaining on how I toutured him to lug our 19kg luggage ard and put him thru the strain of rushing for buses n trains, I knew he enjoyed the trip. After all, I set out planning with him in mind. Knowing his likes and dislikes, I planned the iterniary with his interests in mind. Thus, there was literally no shopping (except gift shops and night markets) and plenty of sight seeing and even cycling and farm trip. I can do my shopping online or in SG anytime I like.

Till I have the time, den I will write bout our trip. hehe 
We had fun in Taiwan 2013
