all very diligent yeah right
headed to snake kiln
NT 300 for a ticket but we got it for free because the driver knows them so well *cackle*
haha no idea why twj look so stern!
it was unfortunately drizzling D:
MUST try if u take the ferry around sun moon lake!
our mode of transportation there!
arrive at the pier!
So many pretty ones so hard to decide!
we finally decided!
The very popular chocolate/ice cream place! 18 degrees!
I just realised my photos are loaded in the wrong order hahaha! but nvm it was from day to night anw. After lunch, he fetched us to the chocolate place. Feeling 18. It was crowded and u have to take queue no. if u wan to enter to buy chocolates. So, we did. While waiting, they serve nice coffee and there is seating area too. Very considerate uh. We picked 10 pieces(alcoholic/non-alcoholic) just to try. Moreover, they provide a very nice and convenient ice pack to keep the pieces cool! Uh so sweet! HAHA! Our chocolates was perfect even after 8hours!
Then we headed to Sun Moon Lake. Took the ferry/yacht to explore the area. BUT it was raining DDD: So, I didnt get to see all the attractions there like Ci en pagoda etc. DDDDD: I want to be back! Alright, but we managed to buy Ah Po Tea Eggs, 1 for NT 10. Cheap, humble BUT DELICIOUS! Must try leh the ah po is already 80 years old. haha! Then we continue the journey to Ita Thao stop. There is a street market selling their famous black tea (AKA red tea) and rice wine. But am only interested in tea =P
Next stop was Shui Li Snake Kiln. My very first attempt going to a kiln tho! Very interesting! The hands-on experience was fun! Although our end product is a pile of shit. =X We then headed for dinner and bubble tea!
Ok here comes the torturing part. Taichung back to Taipei was about 2hours! So we slept, we chatted and did all things to kill time. Driving up through darkness and hill was thrilling hahaha! We reached Ping Xi at 11pm. Imagine how dark and all the shops were CLOSED! Mr Su called his friend to open shop for us to put our lantern! AWW! We were supposed to play with firecrackers too! Was so excited about that but it was too late and not very nice to create so much noise uh. hehe! But that was my first time putting it at night. So serene, so beautiful.
Then it was an hour journey back to Xi men. PHIEW! Finally checked in at 12.30am HAHAHAH! Dumped our bags and rushed down to hunt for food! I love the feeling of going back to that place!!! We stayed in Rainbow hotel for the remaining nights since most hotels were fully booked. I thought it will be noisy but it was so awesome. Shopped too much also nvm, just go back to dump the bags and continue shopping. MUAHAHAHA!
Anw, day 2 was so awesome. We even tipped Mr Su because he is just da bomb. His rate was so damn reasonable and he really planned a very wonderful itinerary for us, driving us everywhere no matter how far and inconvenient it was. He was with us from 7.30am to 12.30am okay!!! THUMB up!!! :D Will find him again for my next trip to explore other parts of taiwan!
MISS TAIWAN LIKE MAD! D:
