Other things i encountered
ximenting arh..i live there throughout...but find tat it isnt quite classy like our orchard road..their fashion style isnt as gd as ours...not tempting to buy.much more outdated den us.... urmz..and more ex somemore..anyway, hongkong is a much better place to do shopping for clothes etc...
the temperature there is abt 12 C to 24C when i am there... 12 C was when we go to yangmingshan..... so cloudy...we took their RED 5 bus from shilin ye shi "shilin nite market"..... den reach there.....den took 108 to feeder us to to the tip of the mountain...the 108 line damn cool...hehe....so cloudy and cold...but too bad.. raining..if not we can get down..cos we never bring jacket go there..den too cold..my parents dun wan go down.... the bus ride was exciting....the bus driver quite experienced...so cloudy she drive so fast...cannot see anything 3 m away barh....lol....
Oh..almost 4get we go shilin ye shi...quite nice the food..i like their steak...steak in taiwan tastes better..their beef taste like chicken...so soft..compared to s'pore's so hard tat u cant bite...the auntie quite experienced in cooking...the black pepper steak was delicious..with noodles etc.... only 130 bucks.. wich is 6.5 sing...
Ya..4got to mention Leofoo village..a theme park there....nothing much barh...but better den our escape theme park.....but reaching there was tedious..we waited one hour b4 we finally got to the rite bus... ok la...exciting rides..i tried the two most exciting ride...one was like a roller coaster tat flips u flip flop 360C..... and it moves in 2 direction.... it goes front and back forward twice..exciting!...and the other one is fly up to 20 stories or higher..den plunge down..oh btw...their theme park has a mini zoo....and a safari bus tat brings u close to the tigers...lions... urmz urmz....
