Grad Trip at Taiwan 2012 第三章

In case you are still following up on our Taiwan journey,
here's the next post! (:

Day 5 17/4/2012
Jerald 造型师 dressing up Mr Tan.

When Wenbin took this, he was like, Don't ever let my dad see this!!!
:X
Audrey: "So did ur papa cry?" LOL
that's my scarf btw haha!!

Exchanging specs led to...

Discovery of Pororo!



Spot the number of people in shades of Jiong!

Breakfast at nearby shop!
I really think our hotel location is very convenient.
Near to mrt station,
near to Qian Gui Ktv,
near to hospital,
near to ning xia ye shi,
near to everything!
'doing doing' 担担面 and 卤蛋!
yummy yummy!
The magic of 担担面 is that,
though there is not much liao,
the sauce plus the noodles is daebakkk.

Itinerary of the day!
- 淡水老街
- 渔人码头

First up, usual bbt at the awesome bbt shop opposite!
Camwhore while waiting for everybardi (learn from @audrey)
chc joins in the fun:)


WHY SO LONGGG. haha.

三头六臂?

nahh! easy peasy, we can do it too!
#attemptfail

NOR.
#practicemakesperfect

BBT all assembled! ^^



连体婴 through a scarf???

Howcher's version of The EYE??
⊙▂⊙

tsktsk! inconsiderate ppl sitting on reserved seat!
Caught red-handed!

We are always attracting stares on the train.
cos too hyper, what to do?


我们终于踏上了台湾!


The shades trio!

After a long journey, we are here!!
At TAMSUI :D
it's the last station like Joo Koon/Pasir Ris that sorta thing.

Cute movie title and don't you think the guy looks a bit like Eldred?

What are we doing here?
Let's take a closer look! heh.



Unglam levitation shot while Bin and I tries to act like passer-bys.
#fail


#jiongdoesitbest

06's version of 流星雨 LOL.




★彡

Everywhere we go, when we see this,
we will all be like,
"AUDREY, 有狗!"
Not kidding.
haha.
especially TW ppl really like dogs!
So many dogs and poodles around ♡^▽^♡

Before reaching, we had to pass through this alley having asked nearby shop owners.
Looks so weird right!
再三确认后, 我们才勇敢地踏上第一步。
The darkness and all made us skeptical if it was the right way...

Nevertheless, IT WAS! :D
欢迎来到淡水老街! ^o^


Here's a map of the place!
Here, we searched for the famous NTD50 bag shop!
And yup, the girls got themselves an official NTD200 Tamsui bag of different colours!
cheap cheap only!
Also bought shades!
And my first baseball cap! NewYork17. So happy.
Bin Bin say my O is a basketball,
and that makes it special. :):)

Anyway their Minnie Mouse Pluggys were really cute and exquisite,
and it really tempted me to buy!
Same shop where we got our shades.
But didn't in the end.

Bought my 牛轧糖 here too!

Spotted these 2 rockers ( ・◇・)?

来到淡水,就一定要尝尝他们的双淇淋!

Long and double icecream!

What do you do when you buy one?
Treat it as a sabre sworddd!

Managed to get some handmade souvenirs here!
That alone, costed me NTD900.
Worth it cos I bought a lot plus it's personalised and handmade!
Along with Michelle and Jerald.
Nice aunty.
I think this made the rest wait for a long long time :X

There is this Super 红豆饼 red bean cake there!
Audrey's theory: many people queuing = must try

Binbin, don stress over the queue k???

o(≧∇≦o)
Gosh, look at that red bean filling!!
Especially eating the piping hot red bean cake in the rainy cold weather #bliss

Person playing with bubbles! :D

Due to the unprecedented rain,
we had to find shelter and settle for Plan B!
Which is....

PLAY GAMES AT ARCADE:D
A wor.

Guys enjoying the old school pinball game.
Chang little boy stands and watch...
cold winds passes by 
*cues kwangsoo music*

Happy people at the rhythm game!
Finally rain stops and it's time to go out for some photos!

Video here:
重温一下吧!

Sometimes I think we are very cute,
and we are really that cute.
Because we always help one another to create memories.
E.g. helping one another to take individual shots at every significant place.

Following is just one example out of the many.
Due to my (always) last minute movements,
I got another few shots taken! :]
But Audrey likes NONE of them.
All the rest had ONE like. 
(¬▂¬)

Artistic yet scary shadowy shot?
Haha this ojiamin actually used this as her previous fb pic! 
LOL!

Somehow it just reminded me of this hahaha.
Van Gogh's Scream

I like this picture:)

Rockers siol.

To get to our next destination 渔人码头,
we need to get tickets to take a ferry!

Disappointing thing was, the rain!!
Rain was too heavy for us to head out.
So we spent some time at the waiting terminal spamming pictures!
Really too many so I just selected a few!

Starting with a normal shot.
Trying to imitate 那些年 Apple of my Eye feel.
And we'd always discuss who should be 谢明和 (played by 郝邵文)
Last guy on the right lol.

This is when we took multiple 10 self-timer shots in one shot.
tongue twister?



This is one funny combo cos I really hit Minhui's head accidentally.
And see everyone's natural reactions!
& not forgetting Howcher la, always so self-absorbed in his own world lol!

& not forgetting the couple that was there. ahem.

Finally we decided to be brave, and head out!
Or else we will forever be there.
Yet another memorable experience.
Those with umbrellas were in threes.
左拥右抱 seriously!
Wah I really cannot take it.
Cos I was in the middle with Audrey and Jiamin if I rmb correctly,
so ticklish!
Literally 抱 together!
Others with no umbrella,
either cap or jacket.

Anyway, see how shiny the floor was in the above picture???
This smart-alec Bin went to do this
YA SHUFFLING.
Then almost fell and become like that,
But this version of 四脚朝天 也太cute了吧!♥o♥


Anyway we are here!
At 淡水's 渔人码头 情人桥!:)

Picture time!

After which we spent some time here snapping here and there :X

Point of this pic: roomie fixing roomie's curtain before before taking picture.
#pictureperfect

YAY:)
Byeeee 情人桥!

No more dinner at the place.
I think we quite smart.
Cos we took 公车 bus back. ;)
And we ran for it okay!

So you'd think that's end of the day?
NOPE.
最怀念的 大埔铁板烧!!!
TEPPANYAKI.
回来!!!

(●♡∀♡)
Our cute ichiban  chef, who
poses for pictures!

 Guys.
I forgot the number of bowls of rice Jiong ate!



Though it doesn't look all fantastic in the pictures,
I can still vividly remember the taste
that's why it still makes me salivate looking at these pictures.
YUMS.

辣炒!
超辣 but, 超赞!


Some side dish, okay er yi.
Those fresh from teppanyaki still the best!

Seriously, I think the power of this is that,
they make a simple dish fantastic.
ESPECIALLY THE TAO GEHHH.

Plus this place is near our hotel lor! like once again.

'Back to hotel' incident:
*all words now!*
Otw back to hotel,
was around 10plus,
slow stroll,
cool breeze,
passed by this confectionery shop,
then this aunty out of nowhere bumped into us
*cues Howcher's story*
cos Howcher was the first one who got bumped by her,
greatest impact suffered haha.
& he also got her deadly angst stare.
Anyway I only remember she rushed off to the counter to buy a cake she wanted.
I would say the weird thing about her was that,
she was dressed like a lolita?
Maybe she wasn't dressed exactly like that.
But she just gave me the impression of such.
I forgot if she scolded us at this point.

THE SCARY THING WAS,
we met her again.
At this point in time, we were walking in two groups,
1. Minhui, Jiamin, Audrey, Howcher
2. Michelle, Me, Jerald, Bin, Dred, Allen, Jiong
basically the remaining guys at the back.
When she brushed past us,
I think we too jing zhang,
so we shouted to the group in front,
"SIAM!"
wahh. GG.com
I believed she understood, she stopped, gave us another death stare.

By this time,
the group in front already ran ahead LOL.
*cues Minhui's story*

We were afraid that she'll follow us la.
But luckily she crossed opposite.
End of story.


Ending Day 5 with a pic of our shades from Tamsui! ;D

Didn't expect Day 5 to be so long! haha.

Preview of Day 6!

LOL.
