Taiwan Day One.

After all the planning, counting down, anticipation, it's finally the day.

 Flight at 10.45am, had to be at the airport like 3 hours before, we woke up at 5.30am.

And reach the airport at 7.30am...

 It's not our first time travelling aboard, but it's our first time travelling aboard together.

On our way to our departure gate, and the other 4 members already started their purchasing at the airport.

But it's definitely a first time for this kid, both the travelling aboard and on an airplane.

Bye Malaysia.

And hello Taiwan !

别人的机场.....

And, the first thing I had upon arriving in Taiwan, Latte. Lol.

It's from the foodcourt in TPE Airport, but it's nice and it only cost TWD 60(approx RM6).

The exchange rate when we visited Taiwan is approximately TWD100 to RM9.20

So TWD 100 is approximately equals to RM10. It's easier to calculate. hehe

Cause we planned to go Taichung first, so we took a bus to Taichung.

It cost TWD 240 a trip. It took about 2 hours for us to reach Taichung.

We reach Taichung Railway Station, and I was told the hotel is very near to the station.

But we still decided to hail a cab, but the uncle is so "nice".

He said the hotel is within a very close walking distance from the station

so he is probably telling us not to waste our money for that short distance.

So, 8 of us pulling a total of 10 luggage, using the bullsh*t google map,

had a very tiring yet meaningless time finding our way to our hotel.

It's quite an unpleasant experience for our first day in Taiwan. -.-

And this, marked the start of all the endless walking in Taiwan....

After like half an hour or more, we finally reached the hotel,

which, is only actually a 10 minutes walk (the most) from the station,

if we have had the right route. Okay.

Luckily, the hotel staffs are friendly and the rooms are alright.

 It only cost a total of  TWD7200

for 2 rooms for 4 person, for 3 nights.

So it's like TWD300 (approx RM30) per person per night.

It's the most satisfying hotel we got through the whole trip. 

Moon Lake Hotel 

No. 42-3, Guangfu Road, Taichung, Taiwan 400

+886 4 3704 8866

Couldn't waste the first day with all the travelling so... 

After placing our luggage in the room, we walked to Yizhong night market.

We just bought anything we wanted to try, anything that we never saw in Msia.
We headed towards different kiosk selling different things
and then gather again after getting our food and started the sharing.
我们没有说好的 就分开然后集合. HAHAHA
I really appreciate moments like this. :)

TWD 120 teriyaki beef noodle. Worth it, like super worth it.

From Yizhong night market, marked the start of Auntie Meiyue's endless umbrella purchasing in Taiwan. 

Was on our way back very soon, cause Yizhong NM was erm, very small?

Nothing much to see and try, so we decided to head back.

And we accidentally found this small alley, where we ended up to have a lil shopping spree. hahaha

Taiwan's night market often has all these small alley which are full of surprises.

It's like, after you walk into the alley there's a whole new world inside. HAHAHA

After the little shopping spree we had, finally heading back to hotel.

And we just have to visit 传说中的便利商店.

Marked the start of my own little adventure in the convenience store in Taiwan.

I'm so tempted to enter every single convenience store there. *神经病

RILA!!!!!

And the things we sapu for our first adventure in Taiwan's convenience store.

Nothing you can find in Malaysia. No way. *proud

I wanted to combine day 1 and 2 in one post,
but the amount of photos I wanna share, makes it impossible.
Choose lesser photos to share, I tried, and I just can't!

Sun Moon Lake and Fengjia NM coming soon!
Goodnight.
