I went a few places during these 2~3 weeks, but I haven't have the time to update this blog. By now, I had already forgot the exact date that I went to each place, just the relative order.

First off is the tourist night market called 饒河夜市. We went there because the girls wanted to go to the bargain fashion area called 五分埔 and the night market was just nearby, so us guys left the girls to their shopping and went to 逛夜市 instead. It was fun. The whole street is fitted with PA systems and an announcement was made around 530 asking all the motor vehicles to leave the area as the night market was about to start. We watched as the stall owners start to come and set up their stalls. Most of the stalls sell 小吃, but there are also mini-arcades and clothing shops. We had dinner together with the girls at a 關東煮 shop.

Last Monday, us exchange students from Singapore met up with a full time Singaporean undergrad of NTU Taiwan and took a trip to 九份, which is a mountain town outside of Taipei city. We took a train ride there, and man was the ride packed. I don't know how long I stood in the train as all the seats were taken. But the trip was worth it. The view at 九份 was spectacular.











At one time, we saw a ray of light shining through the clouds. The effect was awesome. I don't know if these photos can capture the 震撼力 of the moment








I also had a chance to try out 九份's famous 芋圓






Well, thats all for now. Lets see when can I make myself do another update :p
