TAIWAN DAY 5

To start up this post, i would like to inform you to beware of drools and sudden hunger attact because in this particular post, I will spoil you with Taiwanese delicacies I captured at Gao Xiong city. Gao Xiong is a small city and not so crowded like Taipei, but very pretty and nicely structured since this city was designed by a Japanese city structural expert long time ago. But first, let me share some of my fifth day outfit photos :)

This are the delicious red bean cakes I've mentioned before on my previous posts. It has lots of filling variety, such as corn, cream, sesame seeds and of course, red bean.

At night we went to the most famous night market in Gao Xiong and it was one hell of a food marathon for us.  Just take a look of the crowds there!

And these particular photos below are Chou Dou Fu or smelly tofu, the one that stings my nose and doesn't suit my appetite at all, lol.

TAIWAN DAY 4

This fourth day in Taiwan comes a bit blurry in my memory, as much as I can remember it was pouring real hard that day, so we didn't take many pictures. Later in the afternoon we took a dip in a really nice hot spring that happened to be one of  many facilities our hotel offers.

Since I don't have any stories to share this time, just let the photos speak for themselves then :)

TAIWAN DAY 3

Here I am, curling on my bed, feeling sick and dizzy, and still trying to type this post. I'm currently having a fever and a bad wet cough. So the last two days have been my most unproductive days of 2013. Well, I'll admit I have such a weak immune system, unlike V (he's as healthy as a horse), so I easily get sick or feel unwell :(

No more complaining about my health, now I'm back for my Taiwan Trip Journal. This was my third day there and I didn't wash my hair in this particular day, so don't judge my oily looking hair, lol.

From Xi Tou now we're heading to Nan Tou. There is this big temple called Wen Lu and by big I mean enormous! I've never been to a temple that big before.

Then we went straight to Ri Yue Tan or Sun Moon Lake in English. Ri Yue Tan is the most famous lake in Taiwan and the view there is very beautiful. The skies and clouds are always so blue and clear in Taiwan. I don't know if I'm exaggerating or not, because none of Indonesian skies will ever look this pretty, so I think I was just so amazed.

Last destination was Qing Jing Farm which is located on top of a hill, so the journey to get there was long and a bit sickening for me. The view from up there was breathtaking! I recommend you to go here if you ever get the chance to visit Taiwan someday.

Take a look at this weird looking sheep!

I was feeding the sheep! It felt a bit ticklish and wet because of their licking tongue :p
