Taiwan trip - Part one


Hello all ! I'm back from Taiwan. Yeah, went there with Air Asia.
Day 1-20.12 

Actually it wasnt that bad as i heard from others who experienced the flight before. This is my first flight with Air Asia X. I dont know what's with the X,but that's not the point. haha. Well the flight was steady and had a great landing. I didnt had my "ear pain" that troubles me all the time when the plane flying off or landing. As you see in the photo, we're in between the clouds.woots! so cool.It's like thousands of fluffy cotton candies ! :3


Around 5 hours flight and we finally reached there safely. There's 34 travelers with 2 tour guides and a driver in our tour. Our taiwanese tour guide pick us up at the airport and headed to our hotel. Then we went for a street walking to have dinner nearby.

This is kinda like normal char siew paos that we have here, there were full of people lining up in front the stall so we bought some to taste it. It was quite delicious. Around RM 1.20 each.

Fruits stall at Taiwan :)

You can notice there's a lot of scooters in Taiwan. Scooters, not motors. They can park their scooter anywhere. No one will steal it, unlike Malaysia. Some scooters with cool style or cool designs, they will LEND (for a bad word, STEAL) to have a ride, until the scooter has an empty tank of petrol, then they'll park at the side of the road and leave.


Bought some guavas back to hotel.


Guavas are sweet and crunchy. Taiwan beer taste like Carlsberg. I just drank a little, such a weird taste drink. LOL

It wasn't really cold but still a cold night.
