Taipei Training

On 10th Oct, I flew to Taipei for training and touched down at 1 plus in the afternoon... I was checked into a business Hotel at:
台北亚都丽致大饭店 (The Landis Hotel)
104台灣省台北市中山區104台北市中山区民权东路二段41号.

The room I was booked in was the Superior room.







Around about 4 pm. I took a cab down to 民权西路 MRT station to go to 淡水 for the fireworks as Oct 10 is Taiwan National Day.

I was at loitering at 淡水老街 and caught some nostalgic scenes along this street.




At around 7 pm, I made a stop and sat on the bench waiting for fireworks and caught this scene where I purposely tilt my camera.. ;)

Suddenly I heard some popping sound sky.. OMG! I was at the wrong place! Saw the fireworks down the 淡水河 and the view was blocked by some buildings. Was quite disappointing though.

After the trip, I went back to hotel to rest.
The next few days, when I had my trainings, I totally broke my diet plans and had pizzas and fried chicken for lunch... Below 2 meals are the special ones..

三杯鸡
At night, I went shopping at 西门町,忠孝Sogo, 士林夜市,微风广场.

Tried the famous 面线 at 西门町 but I find it too bland as I like to have more vinegar in it..

During my nights shopping on weekdays, I bought the following products at Watsons and Cosmed. They cost at least 50-70% cheaper when compared to Singapore.
  • Legere BB cream & HanSkin BB Cream
  • 我的美丽日记面膜
  • Auqalabel Makeup Remover, Cleanser and Enhancer

Over the weekend on Sat, I took a train to 瑞芳 and then a bus went to 九份 for some picture taking and to try the famous 粉圆..

Finally on Sun, 17 Oct 2010, I flew back to Singapore...
