And so my story continues...
PEOPLE
The people are generally nice, though there were of cos some unfriendly people. And I love the way they speak. It's sooooo sing-song!
Even the guys speak in such tones..
Didn't see much cute guys but there were cutie pie teenage girls around. Taiwanese have good complexions..perhaps due to the weather..even when the sun is out, there's a breeze so you don't perspire much. Ain't as humid as in SG.
Most shop owners thought we were from Hong Kong. Some were smart enough to guess we were from SG.
ARCADES
Hehe...quite alot of such small arcades in the Hsimending area. They have alot of those little machines where a robot hand comes down to pick a soft toy for you.
But our fav was a basketball machine. Alot of these around too. You are given 40 seconds (or was it 30??) to shoot hoops. If you manage to bag in 20 hoops (i.e 40 points), then you get to go to the next round, so on and so forth.
Played at least 6-7 games on our last day.. ahha...and now my right arm is aching haha..
I think Kel would love this machine!
HUALIEN
We went to this place called HuaLien..There's a famous scenic place called the Taroko Gorge there. It was a long long journey there. 2.5 hours by express train and another 45 minutes by drive.
But the view was breathtaking. Mountains, trees, foliage, river, rocks...bleah...I can't describe in words.. haha...and nneither have I downloaded the pics yet...so till then...haha
Getting sleepy.. again...think I'll log off now....zzzzzzzz............
