Taiwan Day 5.


good morning!
still at Taiwan! :)


2nd to wake up.
mummy's always the earliest!

anw, i woke up and heard dogs barking!
so i went to the balcony and stuck my head out to kaypo.

and guess what!
i spotted 3 guys(one of them can be spotted in the pic below. red thingy there.), wearing just swimming trunks and running by the road!
looked like they were training or something, but weather was really cold!
just 1 piece of swimming trunk!?
so brrrrrr! 


a clearer pic of the balcony in the day :D



what we see when we look down from our balcony.


the view in the morning.


well well, it's not THAT beautiful as it was described.
just a nice view of the sea.

got ourselves prepared and made our way to the restaurant for buffet breakfast!

benben was always super fast in preparing.
so there he was, watching his vids again while waiting for us.


waiting for the lift to go for breakfast!




same place to dine again.



refreshing grassy drink??


a very disgusting grassy taste!
it's like you taste the smell of grass with your taste buds!
dont really fancy tt.

anw, breakfast timing was bad!
it was so so soooo packed!
packed with the other tour groups!

yes, those people(if you get what i mean).

no mood to snap pics when it was so packed and you bump into one another every time you make a turn! >:\

so after breakfast, reymus was being such a nice boy to help daddy take care of his tripod and vid cam while daddy went to the restroom.


and this cheeky boy doesnt allow me to get out of the restaurant!


he exhaled air onto the glass door and draws a smiley face to show me.
only after that, did he allow me to pass through. hahaha.


there he is, doing it again! hahaha


handsome little cayden :D


this is the outside of the restaurant.



decided to explore the surrounding alittle before checking out since ytd when we arrived, it was alr too dark to see anything.

this morning, we grabbed the chance to exploreeeee.

day-view of the lobby.


day-view of the front desk.


so later in the morning/early afternoon when the sun had risen, the scenery was really beautiful.


like a picture on a postcard.
clear blue sky with white fluffy clouds, the big sea, greenery and the land.


plus, the natural sunlight and cool breeze.
so relaxing~

what we see when we look down.


at moments like these, we wont forget to take some pics for memory sake.












love this!
too cute!









individual shots!
i like all, so post all! lol.





then back to indoors!


pics with the xmas tree and santa claus in the day!


the little boy, too playful!


a better one :D


pics are nicer in the day!


take a look at their playground.


so so FUN!
it's the ball-ball kind!
omg, brings back childhood memories!


no wonder the kids refuse to go out with us and explore the surrounding!

outdoors again!
this is a view of the hotel from the outside.


a group photo before venturing off further!


in search for a closer look of the sea/lake.


yea, looked as if we were hiking. haha.


when we saw this, we exclaimed, '2500m!?'


ok, so we decided to just walk and see what we'll see otw.
not even thinking of reaching the 'Shueishe Visitors Center'. lol.

saw a local there, with his friendly white dog which refuse to get his pic taken.
was just hiding beside the owner the whole time!


walked and walked and saw the sea/lake.





tadah!
a different angle, but still able to see the sea/lake.


then 2 dogs came jogging down behind us.

this was one of the dogs.
this white dog was limping, so she was slower than the rest.
yea, she's a female.

haha, 3yi's reaction was too funny!
stood there stationary for awhile coz they do not know what the dog was thinking then!


the dog then looked away and started sniffing the ground, so 3yi and rachel were able to cont walking more freely and at ease. haha.


the other dog shitted on the way!
eeyer, chou-chou!

lucky one of us spotted and shouted out, so no-one stepped on it by accident!


daddy saw her limping...



and decided to feed her some bread/cake.


standing with poise!



at the same time, the rest spotted a resting point and decided to snap pics there!










ok, i wasn't in any of the pics coz i was busy snapping pics and filming daddy and the kids with the white dog!




the kids being amused with the interaction between daddy and the white dog.




she was staring at the food on daddy's hands the whole time! hahaha, so cute!


little raphael wanted to try, so daddy let him give it a go.


daddy guiding him. aww~


ahhh, and she was leaving when daddy walked away after finished feeding the whole piece of bread/cake.


but she actually stayed on when daddy walked back!
she recognized daddy or rather, his smell!


not only that!
she actually sits when daddy talks to her and stroke her on her back!



then when daddy squats down and stroke her back, she lays down!


aww~ tt was such an aww moment!
she was so obedient!


she behaved as though she acknowledged daddy to be her owner!
she likes to be loved!


one last pic with her before she runs away to her family and friends!


sudden barks from another dog on the grassland and she dashed back to join them.


and we could only look from afar~


aww~ so dogs are really loyal.
such a touching moment!
another unforgettable moment of the trip :]

otw back to the hotel, daddy had to amuse reymus with that pile of shit on the ground.


totally made the both of us LOL! HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!
why my daddy so funny!? HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!


walking the same route back.


ahha, we were really tourist-mode much.
who would have walk into bamboos of greenery!? hahaha!
really felt as if we were hiking!


and prickly bushes!


the view of the hotel rooms from the outside of the hotel.
no matter how we look at it, we totally cant tell it's an atas hotel. lol.


went to the gift shop nearby to take a look.
reymus grabbed my digi cam and started snapping everywhere.

first, a pic of a statue outside the gift shop.


then, a dog.



woah doggy, tt's dangerous.


seemingly many in Taiwan no matter which part of Taiwan you go.

followed by the interior of the gift shop.


no idea why he snapped a pic of the car, but i dont think it's exceptionally nice to the extend tt it's worth a snap. haha.


then, it's pics of scenery.
scenery is fine :D



spotted : a christmas-tree-like real tree planted outside the gift shop!


calls for a pic!


the boys.



spotted the white dog and friends from the balcony of the gift shop, so zoomed in on them too.
look at their shock faces.
as if they recognized us! hahaha.


reymus passed me my digi cam halfway coz he was interested in daddy's vid cam and borrowed it instead.


otw back to the hotel, reymus borrowed my digi cam again coz daddy needed to use the vid cam.

told him to take a pic with me to see his skills, but no idea why, he just likes to zoom in on almost everything!
first, it's us!


see, another zoomed-in pic by reymus. haha.


hardworking daddy.


this is the name of our hotel.
we know it as 'Sun Moon Lake Hotel', but this is the actual name of it.

3yi got some milk tea with herble jelly for everyone :D


3yi bought some 'yu dan'.

3yi told me to give it a try, and so i did!

ZOMG! but tt was too spicy!
i forgot to ask which flavour did she get.

turned out she got 'black pepper ma la yu dan'!
only then did i realised it's ma la!


it's really SPICY! hen hen la!
i think it's the first time in my life tt i can actually just eat one small 'yu dan' and feel my tongue burning, felt as if fiery-smoke is bursting out via my ears, face turned red and made my eyes teary!

spammed milk tea immediately!

then we went to a tee-shirt shop and spent quite some time there.

walked back to the hotel when we realized tt it was getting late.
