finally.
i'm gonna put up the photos of taipei.
took me eons to uploads them and resize them last night i got pissed and decided to play my ds.
but ok.
i'm gonna get it done.
this is out dodgy little hotel room.dodgy is a serious understatement.i was there first.so i snooped ard.
check this out man.complimentary condoms boy.eeeks.tell me abt dodgy.
after n messages and n phone calls the boy finally found the place.and his grins is from me telling him there's free porn channel in the room.
and then off to shilin to eat and play and shop.there's the boy fishing shrimps.
whichever is suay enough to get caught gets bbqed on the spot.
check out the doggies man.like serious cute balls.
day2.shabu shabu.and there's zero people.haha.the best shabu shabu in the world.
and i saw xiao zhu.i was trying to take a picture of him thru the maze of hands stuck in the air.
so the boy took over.and started taking a million pictures of the girl in a bikini.....
and we hung ard the taipei main station underground mall.and hou che zhan.basically spending the whole afternoon there.
and then.off to taipei 101.tickets to the 89th floor.
in the fastest lift in the world.37secs to go up to 89th.
a very vague view of the skyline frm the top.
a really cute picture.and it shows u tt the building was inspired by bamboo.
the damper tt steadies the building during typhoons or thunderstorms or earthquakes.i cant rem how many thousand tons this weighs.
and it's us again.a really strange picture.
the boy's on his imaginary chair.and i'm freaking out coz we're heading to the 91st floor.
u can start feeling the cold at this stage.and note wat i'm wearing.
finally.the 91st floor.
14degrees and the wind almost blowing us away.and i'm not exaggerating.i'm in shorts and tshirt.i wanted to die.i think my lips are abit blue.u think?
the boy doing his "i'm cool" thing.
really colourful and pretty picture of the 101.
and us.before we head down back to civilization.
and i stood in the middle of the road to take a picture with the lego building.i think it's some convention centre.but it looks legoish.
day3.wu fen pu.and we were so busy shopping we didnt take a single picture.haha.
we got out of the shopping area.and started to find our way to the night market.
and we saw a gazillion motorbikes.
and we're there!the raohe night market.
oh my god.fried mushrooms.
day4.we decided to dress up.and wonder ard the dong qu.which is totally boring.
windy as hell.and bloody cold.
he think he's damn cool.
we were bored.and we got our picture drawn by this guy.
i didnt want to see the pic.so i didnt take any pictures for the boy.but the end result was "who's tt guy?"
back to shilin for the night.and since the chou dou fu wasnt opened.we decided to queue for the hu jiao bing which we saw at raohe with a uber queue.
they cook it by sticking it to the side of this barrel thing.takes freakin' long la.
according to the boy.it's like peng gang ba bao.there's no taste of pepper or smell of it.dont ask me why hu jiao bing.
and on the 5th day.my favourite.headed out bright and early for beitou.and we werent disappointed.
after getting out of the train station we wondered abt.looking for somewhere nice.and we saw this little stream of smelly hotspring water.
and oh.before this we saw an old man peeing.hahaha.
tell me this mailbox is not worth a picture.it's super old school.
and we found the place we wanted to do out hotspring thing at.we chose this japanese styled room.so no bed.u have to put out the tatami urself.
and as usual.the boy had to shit.i almost cldnt find the toilet.
so while he shat.i laid the bed.not before banging my head to the closet.
and i filled the bathe with rotten egg hotspring water.
and this is the view frm the bathroom.while we soaked we cld just wave to the people down below.
this is the damn sad public bath.
and 2hrs was up.but we already were gonna faint frm the heat man.
so we left for danshui.
and like all tourists.we ate wat we had to.first was the long long ice cream.
then it was ah gei and fishballs and sotong balls and mushroom balls and meatballs.
and we saw this old sch toy shop.
and i got myself a pig.
and the whistle sweet for my boy.i think he's the only one on this planet who's nvr eaten it before.
and then.we sat down to enjoy the view.
and we saw this guy fishing.there were so many fish.he didnt need a bait.he simply hooked the fish.
and we got our picture drawn again.haha.it was damn fun.
we headed off to fishermen's wharf.and it was beautiful.and cold.and drizzling.
and we lit the sky with our pyrotechnics.
and had a cuppa coffee before heading back.
and obviously.all good things must come to an end.
with great memories to keep forever.
