Tai Wan
I'm back from Tai Wan!
I took like, say ages to finish this post. Tons and tons of pictures to upload.
Hmm the trip was fun, I got to know my TW relatives better.
Took a domestic plane to 金门, my grandpa's hometown. Stayed there for abt 2 days plus.
Did very lil shopping in Tai Pei, but it wasn't enough. As I only shopped during the first day night at 士林, 2nd day afternoon at 五份谱 (dunno if the char is correct) and Sun afternoon at 西门町. For the first night i din bought anything as the clothes there doesn't suit my taste. The range of clothes were limited to 'ah lian' style, like hot pink with zebra kind of stockings, lousy material etc etc. I forgot to bring along my camera that night, or else i can take some photos of the clothes there.
Anyway, here are the photos i've taken during the trip. I've taken like more than 350 pictures. Haha. But don't worry, i'm not gonna upload all. Hahas.
:)
Enjoy!
