Last blogged @ 11:09 PM TAIWAN DAY 6!!!
九份 in the morning! Happy cos I'll get to eat a lot of Taiwan 小吃! I was quite eager to go find my 珍珠奶茶. 2nd time there, but I still like it there!  Passed by this shop selling all the 特产. We bought a carton of food!  And this! We were all amazed how round the pancake thingy was when the person squeezed it out!  I had mine with chocolate ice cream! Very awesome for the cold weather! But the ice cream didn't have much taste :/   And then we go to 阿源, a shop selling soap, toothpaste and other stuff. And look at this carving made of soap! So cute right!  And this cat lazing on the pile of soaps.  Whee and time for sausages. It's so awesome, you don't eat it, you'll regret!  Then nearing the end of the street, we went to a teahouse for tea!   Look at the pretty view while we were on our way there.    Place we had tea at...  I like this photo of mum here... A little pity cos it's blur...   Teaching us how to prepare our oolong tea.    View from the teahouse!  The full tea set. We all love the cat figurine! It's a hao lian cat!! ^^  Look at the different cats. Guess how much one costs?!  S$50!!! :OOOOO And look at the bigger ones! Looks a lot like 九孔!   And the place we had lunch! As shown in my first picture of the post. Their fishballs are awesome!!! I had lunch the first time I came here too! And look how packed it is!  Table full of food ^^ Shared a bowl of noodles with UJ and I had my 鲁肉饭 again! I ate the most 鲁肉饭 ever man.  Hehe more cats. 九份 is relatively famous for their cats!  So we leave 九份 and head to Yangmingshan, 阳明山 to see flowers. Apparently we got lost (?) and stopped somewhere to ask for directions. However, the person said that Yangmingshan is really crowded now cos everybody's there to see the flowers. We won't have problems going up, but the authorities might not let us come down in the evening cos of heavy traffic. Only the locals will be able to leave. So we decided against going up. So no more yangmingshan :( And check out our very dirty car, that we never bothered to wash, even though we could get a free car wash when we pumped petrol.   So we decided to go to 渔人码头 cos I want to see the Lover's Bridge, 情人桥! Similarly we got lost and ended at some ulu ulu place. But we discovered many pretty things along the way and finally found 渔人码头! Yay so pretty!       Look at all the fried fooddddddddd.   And a picture of the only couple in our group!   After 渔人码头, drove to 淡水 so I can go to my night market again! ^^ But UJ and YY didn't join so they stayed at starbucks instead :/ Check out these spongebob 鸡蛋糕! Such a pity I didn't buy it to try!    Bought one of my favourite 葱抓饼! Add egg also don't need money ^^ so awesome!   And after walking around, we decided to go try this 黑豆花. But we never figured out how the 黑豆花 looks like.   Do you see any black 豆花 here?!?! So apparently, it's all in white colour...Ah yes, I haven't mentioned that I didn't get to buy my 珍珠奶茶 in 九份. So I had 珍珠 in my 豆花!  And before leaving, I just had to go buy this Cheese potato thing. I saw a long queue so I wanted to go try. I had the signature dish. And meh, it's fried potato + mashed potato + lots of cheese + bacon + pineapple + corn + brocolli and I don't know what else! I was kinda full so I kinda freaked out by it. And I stuffed it down my stomach in agony. I didn't finish it of course, and kind of left it for breakfast the next day (even so, I didn't finish it).  And while walking to the carpark, we saw this 街头艺人 扯铃ing. Very li hai leh! And we were the group that cheered the loudest for him. Hurhurhur!  And on our way back to our service apartment, we saw this statue of liberty on top of this deserted or abandoned building. That got us quite excited for awhile. Hahaha. And that's the end of Day 6!!!
