Taiwan 2 - 桃园机场，台中，逢甲

Well... just follow our itinerary which is set earlier! 

Boarding to Tao Yuan International Airport at evening;

Heading to Tai Chung (台中);

Ended up our day at Feng Jia Night Market (逢甲夜市)...

Alright we have done a proper research before kick off this trip, we have obtained some Taipei magazine and a You You Card (悠悠卡), which is like Touch and Go in Malaysia. All these provided by Taiwan Tourism Organisation!! As long as you can show them your flight ticket towards Taiwan, you are entitled all these materials per person. I am really WOW when i am being informed by a friend. 

Just complete the normal procedure, i.e. checked-in, get back the luggages, etc... 

Obtain our temporary "handphone" at Travelling Services counter. We should call it as 宝贝机 there ;P . You may refer to their "website"! This service seriously impressed me, that why you need not to spend extra on your communication tools over there. 

We have made some research before it, therefore, we straight away heading to Ke Yun Bus Service counter without time wasted, in order to get the UBUS ticket to Gao Tie Tao Yuan Zhan which will spend about 30 minutes from Tao Yuan airport! It is my first experience to take High Speed Railway / Gao Tie, it is a real amazing! It takes merely 30 minutes from Tao Yuan to Tai Chung instead of taking bus which may consume about 3 or 4 hours. **impressed...* When it is performed in Malaysia..? Hence I can stop driving and stuck in traffic every day T.t''' Alright, back to our journey... We plan to take bus, He Xing Ke Yun to Feng Jia Market initially, yet no bus there when we are arrived... It's okay anyway, cabs are everywhere =P!! 

1. 桃园机场

2. 客运公司售票柜台购买UBUS 的高铁接驳车票

3. 到高铁桃园站，购买去台中的高铁

3. 到台中站，转搭和欣客运到逢甲商圈

Those Taiwanese are really nice, most of them are helpful even though you are tourist, the home-stay owner has guided us the proper way to get the destination through phone and help us carry the luggage when we are walking in to the home-stay! This place is comfortable indeed, love ~~~

After touch down to the home-stay, rest for a while in a mini yet comfortable room.. Of course... for sure... no doubt... hunting foods and snack in the night market immediately!! We are here eventually, Feng Jia Night Market 逢甲夜市!! Really cant wait to explore it, and it is our first nite in Taiwan, bluek... It is about 10 to 15 minutes steps from our home-stay to night market, really convenient. It is really big night market if compare with the Pasar Malam in Malaysia, shame ~.~" Alot boutique hacker, snacks, accessories, omg.. I'd really like those lifestyle especially when there is none Malay in front of me on that country at all! What the heaven!!! I should migrate, right?! 

----*----*----*----*----*---*----* Foods *----*----*----*----*----*----

I have snapped down the name on each foods I have tried over there, it is definitely Thumbs Up..!! Let's go... Walk along and eat with me here, yummmmmm mmmm mmm my!!! I miss those day now T.t''

Stay turned for the next day!!

Taiwan 1 - Kick off the 7D6N Journey

It's time to update my Taiwan trip posts right now..

Travelling period : 22 April 2011 to 28 April 2011

Members : Dearie & Me, Ryan, Sfun and Kah Hoe

Actually, we (Dearie and me) have never planned to get a trip to Taiwan in Year 2011! Who knows an AA promotion released someday on May 2010. And, we were just back from Bali on that time. Obviously, the traveling mood still hang over there which non stop asking me to grab a ticket during that promotion! Phew...wwwww... my Taiwan dream is achieved eventually *evil grinning**!

After getting a competitive air flight ticket, what we need to do right now is planning out a proper and satisfied itinerary, economic and strategic hotel. That's all about our plan to Taiwan! 

i. What is the place about..

ii. What to do at there..

iii. How to get there..

iv. What are the expected expenses..

v. Estimated time used for travel..

vi. Preferred hotel with the best strategic location.. 

These are all what we all concerning, and for sure, we need to work a little bit hard on it and discuss and get the agreement amongst the members. The reason why I buy myself a kinda thick travel book with detailed information about Taiwan. Omg.. tell you what. It is really blur when I am starting to survey on it. There are variety of public transportation provided such as (1) Railway 台铁, (2) Taiwan High Speed Railway 高铁, (3) MRT 地铁, (4) Intercity buses, and (5) Taxi, which are convenient to you only when you familiar with them ;D

Well, we are not going to pack a million of places during the trips but plan accordingly to what we need and what we want to do over there! It's totally free and easy, and we never follow our original itinerary strictly indeed. What I call it as Free and Easy!! 

After few times discussion, amendment, arrangement with Hotel owner (民宿) and tik tik tok tok... Our trip begins!! Super excited neh. Shopping.. shopping.. Shooting.. Shooting.. Sight seeing.. Let's go!! I will summary the itinerary after complete all the posts, perhaps huh?!

Merry Christmas everyone of you!!

Christmas is sights, especially the sights of Christmas reflected in the eyes of a child. It's too bad, I 'm not considered as a child any-more! It should be a season of joy, of holiday greetings exchanged, of gift-giving, and of families united. But tell you what... I'm not happy at all in this year Christmas!! Well, will tend to be awesome anyway. 

The weakness and loneliness of people who are growing old... Somehow, love is the strongest things in the world, stronger than hate, stronger than evil, stronger than death which can never be kept alone! Hey, I'm still striving hard on it. 

Well.. back to these! Due to the activity created by FB bloggers' Gang, we are all required to take a picture with any Christmas ornaments like.. Santa Claus, Christmas tree, Jingle bell etc.. I've been buried with some other things recently and lack of time to get myself for a real shopping. Today, we've done a quick one and get the pictures as required. Of course, the "we" represent me and Dearie :P

May joy and happiness snow on you...

May the bells jingle for you...

May the Santa be extra good to you!

May this Christmas end the present year, present issue.. present obstacles...

... on a cheerful note and make way

For a fresh and bright new year...

Here's wishing you a..

... Truly Merry Christmas!!
