TAIPEI Day 1

The general Map of Taipei Main Station

 We are staying at Itaipei Service Apartment for the second time, as we loved the location and its accessibility,

To get to the main concierge, use the Y3 Exit and wait straight until you cross the carpark entrance.

 Our Serviced Apartment Room

The room concept was the same as the last one but this time round, was quite disappointed as a returning guest, we got a lower floor room which was noisy due to the lift nearby,

To Get around Taipei, purchase the EASY card from the machine .

 First stop in Taiwan, is always XiMending, Tian Wai Tian

 Ma La Steamboat - Yuan Yang Guo with Ma La and tomato base

Europe Trip 2013 - Budapest Day 2 - Part 2

We didnt take any Subway in Budapest, as we wanted to explore the area. You just need to walk towards town or the river and find the Chain's Bridge, and it will lead you here. 

It was actually recommend by the tripadvisor that you take the tram up, and you can see from the picture is quite steep. I wouldnt mind walking up much but i do not wanna tire myself, so we Q to but a one way ticket up at the BUDAVARI SIKLO

 1000 FT or a single journey and 1700 FT for a return journey per pax from the booth below ( as on sept 2013)

 Q and wait for the tram that will bring u up in 5 minutes.

 The view from the Buda of the Pest is fantastic, something that you dont usually see, as eastern europe is not as popular destination as compare to the west europe.

We were hungry and we are glad to chance upon their ?tourism or their weekend food fair at the main area. 

We had the chicken with rosemary, it was simple yet very fragrance. 

 

We had some other rolled pastries.

They are Served hot and fluffy, sprinkled with sugar or other flavour.

 We ordered and wait for the cinamnon while he tried their espresso coffee

 

                                           The garden full of flower , loving it !

                   
                                 The usual change of duty at ?president or ?minister office ?

Taiwan/HKG

I know i haven finish blogging my Europe trip, and it was only been blog for half of it, but it was time to go holiday to distress myself ! So ya, after the dreadful long and afternoon shift, i was at the airport the next morning

Arrive at the airport at 0600 hrs, with the total combine cargo weight of 26.6kg.

Still prefer to fly via Cathay as it transit via HKG, and the journey towards the detination are comfortable enough for me.

Transit via HKG after a3 1/2 hr flight

Arrive at TPE after 1 hr 20 min flight from HKG > TPE

It was 16 degree when we arrive.

From the Taipei Taoyuan Airport, I normally take the Guo Kuong Bus 1819 direct to the Taipei Railway West Station. Is 230NT for a return trip.

The bus ride is about 40-50 min, where it will reach the Taipei Main Station west gate

February - Dry and hot month with a nasty feeling

The cold wind of January are gone... Noways, are just the burning smell of dry and humid air. We are experiencing dry drought, there are no signs of rain and the grass and trees are turning yellow and dry. The weather are quite unbearable.

To make it worse, I am reluctantly to go to work because of certain things and people. Thank God, in 4 days time, I am making a holiday trip to Taipei and Hong Kong, In Need for that,

While there are things that bother me, and make me unhappy. I do feel grateful, grateful for someone who was with me when I was at my lowest point in my life. He did not left me, but was there for me for almost every minute that he can.

He pamper me like a princess, and tolerate my temper like a Queen, and always be patience
towards me.  I thank God for having him around me. Sometime, I wonder, where does he get this kind of energy and patience from ?

I dropped my ipad again, and the screen turn red again and with his magic hand, the screen isn't that bad, and he did magic again.

He got me a samsung tab 3, as it was light and i can side sync with my samsung laptop. And then I look at him, and I ask him, "does it come with the screen protector, micro sd and cover?'  He got stunned and he look at me,"ok, next time!" It was so funny



 While out for so many cases and blah blah, I went for a happy call with my ex medic, now part time medic for a case of M. According to Him, I was the only one who brought him out for his first call and it was a C case. It was quite joyous to go through this case, nope, not done by me, we were split seconds away from getting our uniform splash my liqour aka water bag, Glad that mummy and the son was safe and healthy.

Mummy was appreciative of our help and allow us to take the cute baby photo. We almost strike 1st prize with the baby weight, but missed by 1gram, ya, by 1 gram.


Something that make me wanna laugh, my mother made my niece's elmo wear a dress. ZP ask if elmo was going on a holiday. And i remember my niece shouting,"Elmo doesnt wear clothes!"

OMG, haven really pack for my holiday trip.. Oops, how ? need to go waxing, nail and treading tmr.
