hi idono! i juz realised u r a guy, not a lady! oh my, why din u correct me b4?
hi all,
yeah, its all a case of bad planning... its stupid rite? a short trip like tt made us go ard TW like tt.... i wld rather they made us pay 4 the domestic flight & we cld hv saved so much time...
and the description abt the coldness is right! its the terrible sickly feeling! it made me feel so sick tt when i rch yangming shan, i was too nauseous to enjoy the scenery!!! now i regretted so much... i had barely stayed outdoors for 5 mins b4 i quickly rushed up the bus!
the hot spring wasnt wat i expected! i expected it to b in a real natural environment & even brought my bikini along coz maomao was commenting she had to go into the spring in the buff. and in the end, the guide said we cant wear anything in the spring as it was a 'liu huang suan' spring. it wld stain our clothes & accessories. he said we cld pair up wif our spouses and those w/o spouses cld pair up in fours and juz dip the feet! in the end, my hb & i paired up wif his 2 colleagues and we juz soaked our feet in the so-called spring in a small little room and it was so rushed coz the attendants were busy knocking the doors to remind us tt their time was up! and when we reached the hot spring site, there was a queue... we waited 4 a while b4 we cld get the rooms... i wonder was it the same experience 4 all here?
idono, there was NO heater in any of the hotels we stayed in!!!! imagine tt! i was so surprised! thus tt explained why we had to wear so much clothes & shiver though we had blankets on while in bed!
and we stayed in 3 or 4 different hotels thru our stay... the itinerary states we will stay in 5 class hotels! might u, some hotels r not even worth 3 stars! can really faint!
fishball, wow, u took alot of goodies photos ah? i took some as well but not as nice as urs...
where is changhwa?
maomao, yeah, nxt time sure wun go wif his boss liao!
actually the boss is not stingy. he in fact had tried to negotiate 4 an 8-day trip intially, the delay in confirmation details was coz of this bargaining issue. in the end, all of us were happy tt luckily it turned out to b a blessing in disguise tt we din managed to extend the trip coz we were all lookg fwd to coming back to SG! in fact, most of his colleagues went along to the trips organised annually & they all enjoyed thoroughly coz the boss usually demanded 4 the best food & accomodation... this time we all so bad luck!
nxt time if i am gog TW again, sure its gonna b an F$E trip!
ya wen, basically, we had no chance to travel in cabs & MRT... i wld rather pay out from my own pocket to travel...
i noe u all mentioned TW is a fun plc!
and its very true tt there is hardly any litter ard though its hard to find a rubbish bin! not like in SG when a rubbish bin is so near, we can still see litters.... its really a shame!
i saw a really hot 'bing lang mei' along our way. managed to snap some pix of this gal but i hesistated to approach her 4 a photo coz dunno if she will b offended. tt day all of us were wrapped up in our thickest clothings & there the gal was in her bra set & g-string, wif a barely-covered netted skirt! i admire her courage! doesnt she feel cold? we were all shivering!!!! hehehehe
maomao, and yeah, i din even realised they stand on the right instead of left until i saw the majority of the crowd tt obediently did so & i quickly followed! anyway its a shame we din get to travel on the MRT.
actually i din expect the taiwanese to b so polite coz usually on news, they will b cursing each other, fightg, hvg demos etc... it wass a real eye opener!
and they got so much TV channels!!! if i wasnt so tired, i wld hv watched the programs! they got bust enhancement programs etc! heee... so fun! and some RA shots...
meagan, yeah, the stupid bus trip was a killer... even up till tdy when i sat in the car, i still get the dizziness!!!!
opppss.... juz realised mine was an extra long posting!
