Taiwan

It's a week trip to Kaohsiung and Taipei. I get to see two new cities which somehow reminds me a lot of where I once spent my two years in, Japan. The reason is it was ruled by Japanese for quite sometimes.

Arrived Kaohsiung International Airport around 10:20 p.m and headed straight to hotel

 Morning of the next day, we walked around Kaohsiung harbor
Traveled via Cijin–Gushan Ferry
 But we missed the lighthouse :(

Ended our day II with Heineken Presents Sensation 2013!!!
That tag means VIP ;)
I had a blast and planning for the second trip next year with just the ladies, maybe?

 We spent the entire third day at EDA World which includes taking rides, taking pictures and watching shows.

Ferri Wheel

We spent another entire last day at the Buddha Memorial Center before traveling to Taipei

 We rented a car and had a Taiwanese friend drove us there. We stopped by at an unknown city which is famous for goose food. I did enjoy it even we left most of the food on the plate given there were too much.
 Because along the way, there were flat tire and miscommunication of hotel reservation, we got to explore Taipei a little late in the evening. We failed to go to the top of 101 tower since the ques were too long. So we decided to try the famous xiao long bao. It was worth the wait :)
The happy moment was when I met Joanne once again after years last met her. I knew her through my twin sister who went to the same uni several years back. I badly wished my twin were there :)

 Today began early, we went to see Chieng Kai-Shek Memorial Hall
 Visited Taipei 101

 And we managed to get to the top!

But again, we failed to see the night view. So I had to get the night view from the wall haha...

Afterward, we had dinner, met business partner, headed straight from Taipei to Kaohsiung for our early flight the next day.

We managed to get out of Vietnam Airport given we had 6 hours to spare. So we get to eat Pho and Cafe at one of the famous restaurant and coffee shop. 
And and this is Me, after returning to the airport for boarding in the next ten minutes.

  2. Watery eyes I had when a picture of Joanne and you came to view and knowing well how much you two thought of me. Touch.

    This is well written with high quality pictures blog! Yet, that's you, and not surprisingly always highly entertained me.

    Next year won't be possible that's what I know, but one day in future, we definitely have to do ladies trip to Taiwan!
