After meeting up with Sarah at our hotel and getting our breakfast of rice ball from a nearby stall at ShinLin Metro Station. After which we boarded the bus and headed for the National Palace Museum. The weather that day wasn't exactly good. It was raining since morning but luckily it wasn't heavy.We ate our rice balls outside the National Palace Museum and after that started touring around the place.
if I remembered correctly this was the sweet rice ball so there were peanuts in it
The place was so big and had so many exhibiton halls that it took us a couple of hours to finish. Quite a number of exhibits were interesting but too bad that we weren't allow to take any photos in the museum. However we still made use of the beautiful sceneries and took some photos.
the photo-taking skills of this person is really .....
this photo of us was like the best taken cause the Japanese who help us took it has really good skills =)
a unique looking trash can found at the museum grounds
By the time we got back to ShiLin Metro Station it was about time for lunch so we decided to make our way down to PS Bubu Restaurant which is located in Tianmu for our lunch. Although this is another theme restaurant but the food is much nicer than the one served at Modern Toilet Restaurant =P
can guess what theme restaurant it is already?
the car plates of different cities were used to decorate the restaurant
the little pink car that we sat in
the food was nice....
a pleasant surprise we got at the restaurant
It was still raining by the time we finish lunch but that still didn't spoil our mood. We, well actually only me decided to do something crazy. I got Sarah to take us to HIM main office.
Hehe... Since the record company was the only office on the whole level we didn't really know what to do except to just roam around looking at the posters which they had stick outside. After going to the loo, I decided that since we are there I might as well go ask if they were selling the S.H.E dolls. However, they gave me a negative answer.
Since there was nothing much we could do there, we exited the building and slowed walked in the rain to the Taipei Arena which was nearby.
Upon arriving at Taipei Arena we sat down at Starbucks to have a cup of coffee and rest at the same time.After some rest, we walked to Sogo where I got some 太陽餅 for my family. Seriously the 太陽餅 was great. The taste and everything was really nice.
Then we took the train and went to do some shopping. After getting the shirt that my sister wanted me to help her get we decided to explore ShiDa Night Market (師大夜市).
Since we were there at around 6plus we had our dinner too.
The food was just alright so after some more walking we went to a shop which Sarah recommends to have our desert.
yummy yummy!
This marks the end of the day we spent in Taipei.
If I'm not wrong there is just another 2 posts to end this all. Hopefully I can end this next week =P
