Taiwan Trip - Kaoshiung #1

12 Dec
First day @ Kaoshiung


Teammate JL came to pick us at Kaoshiung station.
We were really pampered!



We stopped by at a western restaurant Teammate JL visits often and also famous for its spaghetti for our lunch.
Nice! Big portion but cheaper than Singapore’s. Haha!


Teammate JL then drove us to check in at Icon Hotel.
It was one of the many hotels both she and her boyfriend found. Apparently this Icon Hotel is pretty new and considers a premium hotel, we actually paid TW5000 (2 nights) and that’s like half price cause of some promotion.

But guess it was a worth-stay, everything good there!
Check out the length of its toilet!


Despite the not-that-heavy rain, we left for our first destination.



1st stop - 3D Trick Museum
A place
Teammate JL told me about it before we came over and it was also a place she been wanting to go but didn’t have chance to.



We spent sold few hours there having fun and taking photosssssss.
(many more can be found at facebook)


2nd stop - shopping @ one its famous location

We went from shop to shop and even went to one of the bookshops.



We also had our first cup of 50Lan aka Koi.



Friend WC, Teammate JL’s boyfriend came over to join us after his work.
Appreciate his presence and time. We know each other as previously he came to support Teammate JL at her SOT graduation and all of went touring Sentosa. A nice and friendly guy.

3rd stop - steamboat dinner
Delicious!
Very different from Singapore’s style.
We had our more-than-enough share of Duck Blood.



Teammate JL and Friend WC sent us back to the hotel where we spent a while fellowship then they left for a looooooong way home.

Looking the map below, the place they stay is somewhere on the yellow paper. Haha!
