Taiwan Trip Day 2
Day Two
As usual.Woke up at 5.45 morning call.Cause Taiwan is such a big place.It will easily take 2-4 hours getting around.So we went for Tao yuan to HuaLian.
I spent half the trip sleeping away on the coach.Comfy.

We were brought to Taoyuan HSR(High Speed Rail) station to take a train.A bullet train!!The fastest train on earth!!

Then we went to a place made famous by the Taiwanese drama "Meteor Garden" or "Liu Xing Hua Yuan".A show that i used to watch years ago.The main attraction there is called the Lover's Bridge.Which is for..well..lovers.
Went shopping and ate at a retaurant with a 14yr old fish that was on display outside.
Very busy street to shop at.Cramped totally.

Last attraction of the day.We were brought to a coastal area.Where the shoreline has been corroded by the seawater for thousands,millions,billions years?Yeah whatever.
Weird looking forms lie all over the coastal area.

Pics again.Photos are from 4 cameras.All over the place.

Okay...My sis used my camera to do this...He's called coffee.

HRS(High Speed Rail) Taoyuan Station.

Departure and Arrival times are really accurate.

That's as fast as it can get.It's a bullet train.
Out of 4.Only my dad was able to get this shot.Surprisingly.

The cabin.Quite comfy.

The train ticket.

Taiwan.Such a healthy country.No soft drinks no caffeine no nothing.

Place featured in "meteor garden."The Lover's Bridge.

I love the blue blue sky.

It really gets you into the mood.

We saw this THING there on the bench hopping around.....

It was a dog!!A very LARGE one.

One.Two.Three.

LOVERS =)

Looking Back.

The 14yr old fish.

The area that we went to shop at.Nice place.

Very cramped.Many things to see..

and eat.Yam,durian and herbal durian(?) flavour.

Ticket to view the coastal area.

The wonderful blue blue sky.And my thumb...

This thing is called the Queen's crown.You can see why.

They are called "mushrooms."They are pretty big.

The coastal area.

The water is crystal clear!

More landforms.

More mushrooms.

A cliff over the sea.Pleasing to the eyes.

The thing there is called the "fairy's shoe"
it resembles a shoe doesn't it?

Shopping at night.Bright lights.

We had to break open the bamboo.And the only way was hitting it against a rock.

Bamboo rice.Zhu Tong Fan.

Went back to hotel.Some sign that reminded me of Wong Fei Hong.

Each of those things displayed there are easily worth a few thousand dollars.

The hotel corridor.Very quiet.Very Creepy.

Okay.End of post for day 2.Can't really post up all the photos.This is only like 1/20 of all the photos on that day alone.Will post up Day 3 as soon as possible preferably tmrw.
See you.
