Day 5 Taiwan Trip

Weather forecast reported that it will be raining the whole day today and temperature will be around 10+ degrees. So Kennie and kids are well prepared with sweaters except for me as I didnt pack my sweater for this trip.

Wanted to have bf at Yonghe dou jiang but it's full house so we da bao their you tiao and dou jiang. 

Today's itinerary will be to spend the whole day at Jiufen and to meet Teddy for seafood dinner at Keelung Maokou night market. Took the 9.25 am train from Taipei train station to Ruifang station and changed to either bus no. 788 or 1062 opposite the train station (just outside Wellcome supermarket) to Jiufen. 

At Jiufen. It has been raining the whole day and we had to move around carrying umbrella. There are so many things that we wanted to buy and see but the rain really dampen our mood. We left Jiufen within 2 hours and took bus no. 1062 (downward direction) back to Zhao Xiao Fu Xing at Taipei. The bus journey only took around 1hour +. It's actually more convenient to take the bus as compared to train followed by bus.

Was supposed to meet Teddy for dinner at Miaokou but have to change our plan. Really have no fate with Miao Kou. We had always wanted to go Miaokou but was never successful. We activated Plan B which is to meet in Taipei instead of Miaokou. I was craving for Zi Char style Taiwanese food so Teddy suggested 小林海產店.  So paiseh. He ended paying for the dinner. 3000+NT.

Teddy is currently working in Taipei as full time model and is venturing into acting business. Hope we can get to see him in the big screen or TV drama soon.

He brought us to Tong Hua night market. It's not really very accessible from MRT. Around 15 mins walk from Liuzhangli station or 20mins from SYS stattion. The night market is like dead town. It could be due to the rain or maybe it's really not very popular as compared to the other night markets in Taipei.

There are many pet shops beside the night market. So tempted to buy a puppy home and the puppies are so much cheaper as compared to Sg. $500 for a puppy. We will have to pay around $1k+ for Taiwan breed puppy in Sg.
