Finding Random Storage Ruin

Hi Blog,

Right after I touched down in Singapore safely from Japan, my twelve days oversea trip. I had to take a taxi back home... More bleeding from my wallet... But I know I need some rest after that...

So I decided to go exploration in the next day!

But I will go and meet up with my friend, Ben, for a lunching before he continued his work.

ShiFen and JiuFen Revisit

Hi Blog,

After our short visit to Yehliu Geopark, the next stop will be Shifen and Jiufen. What amazed me, is that there is a new express route to Shifen and Jiufen!

The route cuts directly through the mountains.

Because based on my Taiwan visit previously, the bus took a longer route, along the shore for beautiful sceneries... Or I wondered... They just didn't take this route on purpose.

Yehliu Geopark Revisit

Good Afternoon Blog,

On our last day in Taiwan, we thought it would be a great idea to explore other places in Taipei by booking transportation to Yeliu Geopark, Jiufen and Shifen. We thought it would be our private transportation but...

...we were wrong... it was a tour guide bus...

Not sure what EK had booked from... I scanned through Klook, and there were many such tours and transportation in the app. I think... EK (he helped us to book) might go for a cheaper option...

921 Earthquake Museum

Good morning Blog,

Some of them felt that we should spend some time out from Taipei hence we decided to visit Taichung today.

This was 7.30am, usually this time in Singapore, it won't be that bright.

We went for a simple breakfast and set off to get to the high-speed train (there were some hiccups like providing an expired passport detail from the team and I was blind to identify the problem)...

Qingtiangang Grassland 擎天崗

Hi Blog,

What a long tiring first day in Taiwan... and on the second day, everyone seemed to take their time to catch up some rest especially it will be some exploration to do today.

We had our breakfast near our Airbnb even though I wanted to skip it but it will ruin for everyone... Ate until having a bloated tummy...

Well, travelling in a group is always about compromise. It is a second day then I should follow through first. Anyway, where are we going today? We will be heading down to Yangming Shan 陽明山國家公園. Honestly, it is a big unknown to me... Hope it is safe and easy.

Confucius Temple 孔子廟

Hi Blog,

To continue our first visit after we landed in Taiwan - to visit Confucius Temple. I had to thank Heaven for this particular arrangement because ZQ and I always wanted to explore it, but we were uncertain about finding the time in our busy itinerary. Additionally, we understood that not everyone shared the same enthusiasm for this visit.

Because the operation time for any shopping store is 11am and we had plenty of time after breakfast, so they decided to visit the temple.

Why do I feel grateful for this opportunity? Because there are many possibilities like the team might want to split up or visit somewhere else. But I felt touched when they felt it was right to pay Confucius a visit.
