Countdown!

I'm back.

Like a day ago?

I hope the H1N1 thingy didn't creep up to us, because while we were there Taiwan got new cases already. And this morning Singapore had its first case.

And I didn't update the whole time I was in Taiwan because internet access was scarce.

Anyway, I'll blog really slowly because I'm lazy. =D

Day 11.2

Inaugural breakfast at Chin Pin Lok!

Man, blogging this now makes me miss the food. Authentic Taiwanese home-cooked fare.

Mould for ang ku kueh, also available in Singapore.

Sunny side up =)

Along with homemade steamed wholemeal buns, pan-fried pork, and also some cucumbers to balance things up.

And we licked all the plates clean.

Morning walk

Good morning Taiwan.

This was taken at 0514hrs. Imagine waking up to see a clear sky above you. 爽.

苏阿姨 brought us for a walk around the vicinity.

We woke up at around 5 a.m. for this, haha.

豆豆 came along too.



This beetle is gross but well, yea, it's part of nature.

Reminds me vaguely of the Gatti's dog in Besana. I can't remember its name now.

They won first prize for something, something I forgot.
