 <3 p="p">

 the guys 
 and off it goes!
 next up: fire cracker
HAHA First time seeing these!
 the HUGE cracker, it flies up and sparks appeared, like firework!
 only the guys played while we watched at the back hahaha
 we wanted to go shi fen waterfall, but after some walking, they gave up oh well 
But I had been there w my sister previously so I was alright! HAHAHA!
 then we headed to Jiu Fen Old Street!
 Thankfully, it wasn't that crowded.
 yeah twj's fav!!!
 brought them to try this, yu yuan
 And finally, he drove us back to Xi Men Ding, it was an hour journey and all of us were tired playing and walking around for the day. 
Stayed at Taipei York. Not really a hotel, not really a minsu. HAHA! But it was nice!
They have no reception tho, upon reaching call Mr York, he will bring u to the room. Every room has different themes. :D Most importantly it's very cheap!!! $25 per night?!
 our room!

 Love the color combi
 their room was huge, for 4 pax but also way too cheap hahaha!

 nice painting uh
 ready to head out!

 Shi Lin Night Market!!!
Supposed to go keelung but the driver fell asleep and he didn't appear so we decided to go on our own. HAHA! Anw cab is quite cheap there..
 fave!
 teppanyaki only $4.50 each hahaha wth we ordered damn a lot cause it's really yummy
 i hate milk but i like this fried version
 my mum thought i bought fried fish ball ummm -.-
he had a lot of fun cause there were rows of games

Continue from my Day1. It was a long day. After Wu Lai, we went to Ping Si. Walked around the street, but most shops were closed on monday. Went to release sky lantern, my 3rd time doing that HAHA! But they had fun especially with all the fire crackers since we can't do that in Singapore. Then he brought us to Shi Fen, we walked around but gave up cause the road was quite a challenge for wai po. So they didnt get to see shi fen waterfall. 
From Shi Fen, we headed to Jiu Fen, it's about an hour journey... Jiu Fen was good, lots of food hahaha! It's really an old street and with awesome scenery. I went there previously on weekend, the place was so crowded, but this time on a Monday, it was good! Ate the ah po yu yuan again cause I miss it! 
Finally, my brother was so tired cause he was sick... We headed back to check in. Back to XMD, oh yeah! Checked in, rested, bathed and headed out again! Supposed to go keelung DDD: Nvm, I will get to go one day. hahah! Shi lin was good as well, but not much shopping with young and old around. It's the family time that matters uh! haha! Mingjie loves loves shilin cause he had so many game stalls to go! -.- 
Took cab back to XMD, rested and we walked around at night.. To 7-11 and buying some street food. Hehe! Indeed, a very very long day. Started in the morning 6am to midnight. (:

Day 4 was a good day cause there was no rain at all! We had ah zhong mian xian for breakfast followed by Starbucks to have desserts. I really love their starbucks! HEE! Then we went to Jiu Fen. It's quite easy to get there. Upon reaching, it was quite crowded alr. We combed the whole of jiu fen and began buying our stuffs hehehe! Lots and lots of goodies! Go to their teahouse cause it has awesome scenery! We wanted to buy our taiyangbing and pineapple tart from lee yi before going back to hotel.. Who knows!!! All sold out DDD: I can just break down and cry. We left the place feeling quite depressed seriously. Rushed to the second branch and the same thing happened.. DD:
So we got no choice, headed back to leave our bags. Left for shi lin night market. The market kinda shifted alr so u have to navigate abit before getting there. Not enough time to shop cause we reached there at 8pm. Their food area also changed, like a food court now with air-con. Left the place at 11plus.
In the end, the youngsters(us) headed to partyworld. hahaha! Halfway through, everyone took turn to take nap HAHA! Only ting survived the whole ordeal. Their partyworld is so awesome and magnificent! 
Am missing all the good foor alr! *drools* Alright, leaving for hk later in the early morning. Hope all goes well! :D
