Finally gone on a trip that I really paid attention to haha. Most other overseas trips were pretty much a blur, but because I took the effort to pay attention and get involved in it, it was a lot more rewarding than previous trips.
Unlike most other trips, this one was absolutely delicious every single day. Singaporeans I've asked have had mixed reactions to the food there... But my family's the more adventurous kind; as long as it looks good and smells good, eat it! Feels quite like a family motto haha. We enjoyed all the street food immensely, and didn't even end up with a single stomach ache. Thank God for strong stomachs.
The place I enjoyed the most was the Geopark at Yehliu... A must go for geog students for sure. All sorts of natural wonders. Spits, bars, tombolos, cliffs, evidence of weathering, rock formations - the best place for a geog geek to do a project, or photo buffs to take nice pictures of scenery. Here are some nice ones:
Besides the geopark, we went to the flower expo... Lots of nice pics that can be found on my fb page. Link:

Besides that, lots of other hilarious moments. Daryl finding a new gang name for instance: Pak Fah Yeow, stepping over the line at the geopark and other antics, mostly involving my mom.
Other places of interest that we went to: Shilin Night Market, Liuhe Night Market, Jiufen, Taipei History Museum, Kaohsiung Central Park, Taipei 101, Love River. The aircon temperature made it a good trip, and it was totally worthwhile, though we missed a few things. Xi-men Ding, Chan Kai Shek's memorial, Sun Moon Lake to name a few. Maybe next time!
Oh yeah. Purchases from the trip... Souvenirs and gifts mostly. But for myself: A Model of Tony Tony Chopper from One Piece, a special coaster with a cute pic and the chinese word "Lazy" on it, a new pullover in RJ colours, new formal pants, a shirt and new shoes.
If you're interested in knowing more bout the trip, feel free to ask! =D
