Taipei..

Taipei was cold...the temperature was only 16C on my 1st day there...
It rained here and there on my other days there so the temperature dropped to 11-13C...
Wah lau, I was freezing even in the hotel room...The heater in the room didn't seem to work very well haha...Either that or my skin & sweater is really not doing a good job at keeping me warm!!!

Anyway, cold as it may be..with frozen fingers and a determined heart..I still went out shopping and trawling the streets haha..
Went to Shilin Nigth Market on my 2nd night as well...cos me & my colleague HC brought 2 Hong Kongers, a UK guy and an Aussie guy there to see some sights & sounds...
It was hilarious...Jay the UK guy was so amazed by the pushcart stalls selling braised innards of pigs & chickens...he was asking us what the hell were those things...

3rd night there, went out with my boss CS & HC...and together, with their powers combined...they forced me to eat Fermented Beancurd more commonly known as "Chou Dou Fu".
Oh well, an experience haha...it was stinking when they fried the nasty little pieces of beancurd...but when u actually eat it, the smell isn't exactly there.. ahha...it tasted just like Dow Gua to me...
But it was fun shopping with my 58-yr-old male boss in tow... haha..Couldn't believe it when he actually bothered to give me comments when I was considering whether to buy a jacket or not haha...lol..

Last day...I was leaving Taipei alone..flight was at 6pm so I had some hours during the day to walk around...
Trudged around clad in my jacket & my scarf..well, both borrowed from ahboy's sister...
Bought some small knick-knacks and some snacks...but mostly it was just walking & window shopping on my own...Kinda cool...to walk the streets of another country alone...
But at least Taipei's security is quite ok lah..I wouldn't dare walk alone in places like KL or hell...Budapest?

Came home armed with a luggage, a laptop bag, a DFS bag full of wine & liquor & beer, and a big bag of snacks & foodies...
It was quite a trial trying to carry all those things...
