TAIWAN DAY #3 |251214 {Merry Christmas}

Below is the map, which describe on the Taipei station map. The map with maroon block is the route for our day 3! :)




After two days staying at Houshanpi, more to the southeast as shown in the map. It is time to move on to our second station ---> XinBeitou which is located somewhere at the Northwest part.
It is an hour journey.

Fatty posted at the railway station. It is quite convenient in Taipei and easily accessible from a place to another no matter by train or bus. (As shown in the map above). It is just like Singapore. We do not need to worry on transportation. (FYI, Singapore car is really expensive. It is an extravagant purchase. So, if possible take the public transport, that will really keep our pocket from burning a big hole. Anyway, back to Taiwan. 

Apparently we are still waiting for the train to board on to our destination.

And waiting...

Finally. We are in the train. There are not many passenger and we managed to secure a sit. 
Selfie time! :)

Handsome fatty without Specs and I :)

Changing station from 北投 to 新北投 . 很像一个人等火车,几EMO一下.  
So black, so dull, but I am not being emotional :p
After deposited our luggage in the hotel room, off we go to the next station. 

On the way to Tamsui! :) 

Oh haiiii :) *Thanks to the photographer !

Tamsui Old Street! I was so excited cos we haven't had our meal yet.
So it is time  for us to shop and explore for food. Maybe I can get some souvenirs from there too! *excited mood on*

Tamsui's famous specialties, Agei or Ah Ge (阿给). It doesn't look pleasant for me but it is still worth a try. Basically, it is a fried beancurd with vermicelli noodles in it.
Then, it is served with hot and sweet sauce. It is a must try in Tamsui.

Tamsui old street. See all the price tag, A simple bad just cost 100 yuan. Cheap cheap cheap but I didn't get any of them. Heard from boyfie that if you need to buy an extra big and simple luggage back, probably this is the best place to purchase.





Haha and we spotted this shop! The bing huo polo bun is ichiban! Very nice. The  strong baked bun smell brought us here. The hot bun plus the freeze butter melts in the bun! My instinct tell me I must try it! lolols and we have made the right choice. *hmmmmm



YUMMMS! Havent flied to Hong Kong yet, so I would say that this is the best I have ever tried :D


The famous Ah Po Iron Egg.  It is dried braised egg, Personally, I don't quite get used the taste and smell.



Yoohoo! got the tickers to the Fisherman's Wharf. 


Say hi to us with our poncho.

Reached Fisherman's Wharf. The bridge behind is the famous Lovers Bridge. Oh my the strong wind and the rain is terrifying, As if I am going to fly away. Goshhh!

The Lovers Bell.
1. With a peaceful mind.
2. Say your lover name.
3.Close your eyes and make a wish 
DONG DONG DONG!
:)
*There are sayings in which couples make a wish for a positive relationship.

So this is what fatty doing. :)


Wow, Lattea? Tried before Latte but not Lattea?

Welcome to Bali *To the right*

Welcome to Bali. * To the left

The quiet street. Expecting something special.

Expecting more. 

Then, we  are like oh my gawd! So this place is just like this?
The food was prepared long ago. Flies. So. we was like ohh okay.
*Kinda disappointing


Oh my, the umbrella is flyingggg! HELPPP ME, no more photo taking! :P








The so called BALI.  Didn't stay any longer. Back to Tamshui.

The famous Keko Fishball shop. It has very long history. It is famous for its fishball stuffed with meat in it. Famous and a must try!

Just the just served food. 

Still at the Tamsui Old Street. Moving on, shopping somewhere nearby. Not too bad cos managed to get some shoes for myself. Err, not cheap shoes. Two pairs of cape skin shoes. According to them it is very comfortable and able to sustained till 5 years. So it is worth the price. I got attracted, so I bought it. The problem is... After discount, it is still very EXPENSIVE. :/

The next station we go is to the Shilin Night Market. Like finally. It is so big. I SMELL nice FOOD. We tried to mushroom, the Shilin fried Chicken, the twd 10 yuan snacks (Extremely large bundle of spring onion wrapped by a thin meat) YUCKS. Sometimes, curiosity kills. The taste was awful but this stall has the longest queue among all probably because of the low price.

And ohh ya, I got my Anniversary gift here too =)) thanks love <3

Till then... 

xoxo
Love,
