Church Camp Cum Taiwan Trip!!

Ended my church camp and the 1st thing we did was to head out to the dessert stall next to Xin Dian Church.
The ice jelly with opium balls tasted damn good!!

This is a Mixed combination of everything!!

Normal Ice Jelly!!

Me, Eugene, Hui hui and Qilin.

Patricia and me. She is just damn piggish.

We headed out to Wulai after that and the first food we found there was this.
A mua chee thing but it was barbequed.
Eating one with sesame seasoning.

Eating the next one with cheese.
Sesame tasted better. AHAHHAHAHA.

With my mummy and qi-en.

Giving the sesame mua chee another bite.
just too damn good.

Then i saw the thing that i loved the most.
Wild boar sausage!! damn owning shit..

Sometimes you just have to shout and exclaim how good the sausage is.
I ate another 3 sticks after the previous stick. LOL

We were going to the hot springs in Wu Lai.
There were tonnes of people who wanted to do the same!!

Ok. Those things on the stick was even better.
It was wildboar meat wrapped with golden needle mushrooms then bbq-ed.
super delicious.
btw the other 2 pple in the picture is qi-en and qi-xian.
Poor qi-xian had to sleep with me in the same hotel room thru out the entire trip and also take the same flight with me back to singapore.

I had to eat it.

We saw some guys swinging with a rope over the river.
The waters were damn inviting.

The river that flows through Wu Lai Town.

Everyone satisfied after our Hot springs bath!!

i will name the people in the picture another day.
But i look damn shuai!! hahahaha

Having some yuan zhu min style dinner.
The bamboo rice was good. Wild boar meat was good too.
But my mum ordered damn alot of vegetables.
scared the shit out of everyone. LOL
all of them see the vegetables until scared.

My mum, auntie swee kiao, sarah and arin.

Everyone left Wu lai on cabs.
but the youngsters, meaning me and a few other people decided it would be more economical to take a bus and train.
anyway the cab down from wulai to our hotel was $40 sing dollars which was exorbitant compared to just $3 sing dollars taking bus and train.

Passed by the Taipei national theatre

Eugene, Qilin, Qixian, Me!

Qien, Qilin, Me!!, Qixian and Eugene.

We woke up the next day all prepared to go to Liu Fu Chun.
It was a damn famous themepark.
and the rides are so scary that it will make you shit your pants.

Ximen Ding in the day.

On the train ride to gong guan to take the liu fu chun shuttle bus.
From left to right
Isabelle, me, Qilin & Patricia.

Yeahhhhh we found the place to wait for the shuttle bus to come.
but turns out that the bus ride there needed 1 and half hours.
so even if we went there we would reach only ard 3plus pm and the themepark closed at 5pm.
I was damn disappointed but life has to go on and we went to shop at gong guan!!

We found a dessert stall that sold the famous mango ice dessert.

Kiwi Ice

All types of Fruits Ice. LOL

I had to eat more dessert to soothe my anger.
The weather was damn hot and i was still upset that we missed the themepark because the girls woke up too late and wasted too much time on changing.

It was good!

Mango tasted the best.

We had dinner at some Jap restaurant that sold fried stuff.
It was damn good.

Qixian and Eugene are both pointing to Pat's watch.
because it costs. $300 plus sing dollar.
DAMN EXPENSIVE!!

Satisfying dinner!!

Went to shilin night market after dinner and we had more food.
I played some games and i scored 10 for 10.
Won a big prize!!

Yes!! and the big prize is the rabbit in the picture.
wasted $5 dollars for it. LOL
but it felt damn good to shoot all the targets down in 1 go.
all my army training finally put to good use. hahahahahhahaa

And the next day we headed down to Jiu Fen!!
it was a place in the mountains and it used to be place where people mined for Gold.
now they just open stalls and earn tourists money.
but they still have some damn good food.

i dunno what i was doing.
WAHAHAHAHAHA

My ugly sister.

Rustic buildings.

Qilin's grandmother.
She is one hip grandma. damn funny.
always say damn funny stuff.

The old and the young both resting.
She was 85 and resting her aching knees.
i was 24 and resting my cui right knee.
stupid knee.

Went into some teahouse that had a balcony overlooking the valley.
We had tea and coffee while enjoying the view.


I think i look damn gay.

After Jiu fen, we went to yehliu Geopark to see the famous Queen head rock.
That is my pastor and his wife in the picture.

The heat was getting to us.
So we took a rest in the shade before venturing out into the beach to check out the rocks.

I dunno what happened here.

Me n Qilin

Mummy and Me!


My sister refused to take picture with me cos i was damn sweaty.
but i still dragged her under my armpit!
MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

The weather was HOT!

Finally the queen head!!
can see the shape??

Camel Head. LOL

Our entourage of taxis bringing us around. 9 taxis in total!

Dinner at a seafood restaurant.

Our taxi uncle. damn knowledgable.

And we headed home the next day.
Found this random guy with a persimmon head.
i dun understand how can this be a mascot.
but basically he is just there to tell everyone there is free wireless in the airport.
hahahahahhaha.

Taiwan was damn fun.
have to go again some other day!!!
=))))))
