6th day Taiwan (7 March2010) Taichung to Taipei

We had brekkie at the cafe below. It was provided. n the buffet spread is quite a lot. but too bad we dun have enough time as we woke up late ;p

also, if the kids stomach were well, they can drink milo and chocolate there... hiaz... nxt time bah







Gem making faces again haaa... Jasper still feel weak



We quickly eat... v delicious! and drag our lugguages to the bus stop to take the bus to HSR station.

To our surprise, the bus was actually a shuttle service and it was free.



Free and also take time lor.... took us almost 20- 25 min to reach ah...
Finally reach and we managed to board the 11 a.m train back to Taipei for our last hotel stay.







When we arrive, we took the taxi back to our hotel - Just sleep xinmending. n quickly waste no time and walk over to Xinmending for our lunch! I had placed a booking at Modern Toilet restuarant... 12 p.m, nearly lost our way but still manage to reach in time. luckily of the tips i got from people's blogs... :)








Flowers blooming from toilet bowl? haaa

Big menu!


Yummy!




Free ice cream w the meal... if we know this is complimentary, we wouldn't order the big ice monster! Weather is getting colder and think others thot we r mad... haaa cos everyone order HOT food. in fact, heard Monday the weather will change to much colder.


See how big it is!



Toilet bowl seats... there no high chairs... heehe tat explains y.

To see 101 and shop at neighbouring shopping centres...


Jasper fav panda... he took happily though he not feeling well... see how he loves it. other characters he decline and even cry...





Snoopy garden?



We went up the observatory at 101 as we thot the kids will like it.

We didn't know upon entrance they will take group photo n so didn't wake Gem up. By the time we realise, we tried to insert others in before us. but Gem still dun wake up. Finally she woke but not happy. n her pic didn't turn out nice. if not nice group photo... anyway see us on the tv screen... tat our photos with 101. Actually at obervatory also have another photo taking. but tat one is candid n funny poses... but since kids not in a good mood, so we give it a miss.

The photo we took... Jasper looks funny hahaha n Gem looks dizzy...
The daytime shot we also bought but I didn't post cos it similar

The beautiful lights in the lift. it took us a few sec to get up.


the view. abit cloudy







Gem love the Damper bb mascots... there are 4 colours...



I have a small helper... hahhaa she always help us with the shopping bags...



Whenever she see the damper bb, she will ask me to take her w it.


How the real damper looks like. It suppose to help the building from swaying during earthquake.



Now we know how tall she is...


101 interior



Nite view of 101. Nite v cold liao... chilling n somemore a bit drizzling. Let the kids wear rain coats but Gem doesn't wan... hiaz. so i force her to wear the jacket hook.



See this garang gal! simply love the wind blowing to her face!



We bought donuts for them at New York New York (纽约纽约)

Next, went Xin Kuang San Yue (星光三越)

didn't manage to buy stuff there as it rather ex... but we also walk a while since outside is so cold!
haaa first time dun wanna get out of a building...

We saw another theme restaurant... it on an aeroplane style but we didn't try since we will get chance to fly on a real one soon!

Gem sees this (below) and scream and as usual pose...


Then we saw the rain like no more, so decided to go back hotel to freshen up. As it was still early to call it a day, we went to Taipei main station underground malls since we too cold to be outdoors... We bought quite a few stuff there, including their story books. Got cheap bargains there. Also bought my jeans for less than $30 and not bad cutting. in fact they have free alterations but we didn't want to wait. but the staff told us we can act come any other day to alter, FOC. but then of cos we can't since we dun stay in Taiwan ahhahaa...
This book (plus CD with all the songs) below cost me less than $5! (Taipei underground malls at taipei main station)
Once reach hotel, Gem change to her pyjamas and drank some water... haahaa
