I'm back from my trip!!
High Lights
The room in Taipei was nice and big, although it was far from the city.
The hot spring was sooooo relaxing and comfortable.
For one of the meals they had baby pig trotters, sinfully delicious!
I shopped like a mad woman, stuffs are cheap if you know where to look for them, don't go into the main stores but those small corner shops.
The roast goose in HK is shiok, a definate must try!
I got to go to Disneyland HK!!! Ok so it's the smallest Disneyland and the queues are atrocious but it's Disneyland!!! Loved the 3D movie, you could actually smell the pie that was shown and feel wind and water! I think the most thrilling ride there was probably Space Mountain. And of cos don't miss out the fireworks show.
Low Lights
We were placed at this ulu place on the first night, Tau Yuan Chun.
The vegetable served at every meal was cabbage, not exactly my favourite vegetable...
In Taiwan, I think I spend more time in the bus then touring.
Interesting Lights
The rice served in Taiwan is a bit like Japanese rice, short and sticky.
Learnt about Pixiu.
Wierd Lights
The hotel at Sun Moon Lake that we stayed at was opposite a big temple. The 1st 3 floors were below ground floor. We were located at the 3rd floor.
There was a giant centipede in the room and a grasshopper in the toilet!! Luckily we managed to get another room.
On the last day of the tour, we found out that it wasn't only our room that had centipede. And according to this lady who found the centipede on her bed (!!!!), it means there are dirty things around.
She also said that when she opened the window she saw a light in a distance and she's a bit short sighted so she stared to see what it was. Then she saw something white and decided that something was not right and quickly closed the window and curtains.
According to her, there was a couple in our group who saw an old woman/man a distance away outside. But the time we arrived at the hotel was 23:30-00:00, and logically there shouldn't be old people hanging around at that time....
I think the most ironic thing was that the temple opposite the hotel was a really big temple...
Will edit this post later to add in some photos

Well, those things lurk most near to religious places like temple and churches, even just over the walls. This is what i read before.
