called a cab at ard 8am, expecting to haf jam along expressway as it was weekdays, but it din.. reached airport before 9am.. checked in our luggage and went to haf breakfast at T2 burger king while waiting for lj to come as she promised me to send me off.. or did i force her to come? haha! back to T3 again and walked ard as we still haf alot of time left.. checked in at ard 11am after bidding goodbye wif lj. Thanks for sending off:) walked ard at the departure area as its' still early.. board the plane after that and here comes our journey! love singapore airline! the stewardess just kept asking if we wants any drink.. watched 坏女孩 on the plane.. nice movie though i watched before.. reached taoyuan airport at close to 5pm.. looked for our driver to drive to our hotel.. reached hotel ard 6pm plus.. rest awhile before heading down to jingmei night market.. first time gg there and we board the wrong train!! guess too long din took the train and i forgt where to go.. reached jingmei station and felt lost again.. cos i've nv been before.. and yz din check on how to go too! so everything gt to depend on me! walked one round and bought some food and cabbed back to xmd since yz bought smelly tofu.. back to xmd, bought ah zong mian xian and some food for dinner.. back to hotel after that.. reached hotel quite early and that end our day 1..

woke up at 7.30am and prepare to go down for breakfast at the hotel.. almost the same food as what i ate few months back:) back to room to wash up and get ready for day 2! took train to zoo, and yz kept asking where to go.. which is quite frustrating? cos i also don know! i've nv been before too! and she expect me to know? and she din even bother to search on those places we are gg! it's not that i din tell her our itinerary at all.. spend ard 1 hours inside the zoo and we walked over to maokong and she asked the same question again.. and my reply to her was.. follow the sign? follow ppl walk lor.. took the cable car up.. nice scenery on the way:) and the ride is cheap! NT50 for almost half an hour ride! haha.. went up to the last station, walked ard and back to main station.. trained to taipei cityhall after that.. went to eslite mall to search for magazine before gg to 101.. and she complained abt the distance that we need to walk from mrt station to 101.. i was like eh.. this is just only a short distance, just a maybe less than 10mins walk? and she complain? and it's not raining at all! the previous time i went it was drizzling and we had to carry an umbrella lor.. brought her 101 and she complain abt the food there isn't nice so she don want to haf lunch there.. so i say fine, then we will go back to eslite mall there instead.. walked ard 101 first before we walked back to eslite mall.. and she nag and nag during the journey back again.. cos we haf to walk! reached eslite mall and she finally decide to haf chinese cruisine in a chinese resturant! had our lunch at close to 3pm! trained to wufenpu and raohe after that.. went to raohe and most of the shop still closing but manage to try the pepper biscuit this time cos the queue is short! haha.. back to wufenpu and walked a few round before we really get into our shopping mood.. can't find the cardigan i want anymore:( went raohe again after that, yz din really want to buy any food there cos she say she's still very full so i only bought mushroom.. love their mushroom! still the same taste as the previous time! trained back to xmd after that.. reached hotel quite early and had cup noodle for dinner..

woke up at same timing and down for breakfast again.. trained over to taipei main station to go ruifang.. and she kept asking me where to go where to go again.. and the problem is i don even know where to go! cos it just look different from 2 years ago! and she expect me to know? manage to find the exit to tra after following the sign and it's quite easy! haha! reached tra platform and she kept asking which train which train.. and when i told her the train that we are boarding, she doesn't seems to believe me and she saw another train that is gg to ruifang at ard 1005am, so i was saying 9.35am there is another train gg to ruifang just that the destination wasn't there.. but she don believe me.. so nvm, i show her the map and she finally believe! ask her to do some research for that she don want! k lor, nvm.. reached ruifang station, bought the one day pass to pingxi.. headed over to jingtong first.. stayed for less than half an hour and we waited for the next train, since she isn't keen to take any pic so i shall do that too.. next station pingxi, walked for ard 15mins and back to the station to wait for the train again! trained to shifen and walked ard, took a few pics and we are back to the station to wait for the train! quite a wasted trip i guess? in fact i wanted to go to the waterfall:( but think that the walking distance is quite far and she will be complaining again, so i din ask her.. back to ruifang, wanted to bus to jiufen but i couldnt find the bus stop and she kept blaming me again.. end up we cabbed in order to save the time.. walked ard jiufen and she complain abt the crowded and the stairs as i expected.. din climb finish the stairs cos she don want to.. bought some gift and tea leaves there and cabbed back to xmd.. went back to hotel first before gg down for shopping.. din really shop cos she don want to, so i just bring her walk ard.. and she bought mac for dinner and i had cup noodle for dinner again! and that end our day 3!
