Taiwan Shopping Loots!

Its been 4 months since I went to Taiwan. And its about time I concluded my Taiwan trip posts.. Its been far too long.. So here’s my last post for Taiwan.. Shall conclude my last post of Taiwan with my shopping loots of course!

Shall show individual pictures of the shopping before the final overall picture.. Its seriously quite a sight..

Shall start with Foood!! Some snacks and stuff..

P1010313

3 umbrellas! From the left: 1 for Nana, 1 for me and 1 for sis

P1010291

3 pairs of socks!

P1010294

Beauty Products!! Its like a mask-haven there!! And Majolica stuff there are cheap! Forgot to take a pic of the MM stuff I bought. Heh..

P1010302

Some handphone ornaments as gifts.

P1010286

Some handmade handphone pouches & small bags as gifts. Very cute!

P1010287

Gifts for friends bought from Lavender Forest! Very nice!!

P1010303

More skin care products!

P1010297

Only bought 2 proper bags. The bags in TW arent too nice. Nice ones are very ex!!

P1010300

Loads of magazines we bought! A lot of cool fashion stuff! Berry being kaypoh..

P1010280

Clothes – All Sis’s. The fashion there not really suitable for me.. I only bought 1 Adidas jacket. Slightly cheaper there. And check out Berry kaypoh-ing in the pic again..

P1010278

Tons of shoes! Shared by me and sis. Again, Berry in the pic..

P1010277

Next up, necklaces! All sister’s cos I don’t really wear necklaces.

P1010289

And EARRINGS! My favourite! Earrings there aren’t cheap but the quality is definitely better than the ones from Bangkok. And I find it quite worth to buy cos each pair is about $8 to $12 dollars. But I saw a few of the similar designs I bought in selling in SG for $20+ to $30+ at Bugis. Blah..

P1010290

Finally.. 2 shots of the overall damage!!

It already seems like its a lot from the SO MANY pictures I posted above.. But check out the complete picture and be stunned…

A not-so-scary view..

P1010282

A view from the top. With Berry looking lost amongst the shopping loots..

P1010314

Ok.. Go ahead and say I am crazy.. I think I am too.. *laughs*

And this.. concludes my last post for Taiwan.. Not too sure I have any more interesting things in future to blog about. If there isn’t, then its just going to be boring old stuff about me..

*laughs*

Taiwan Day 8!! Home Sweet Home!!

Our last day in Taiwan – Taipei!!

The group split into 2 mini groups for the last day to fulfil some cravings for some of us. The first group – the scenery group consisting of Sig, Yong & Cool headed to 龙山寺 to pray and to get some pictures as well.

For the benefit of those who are interested, here’s some of the pics taken by Yong.

Before heading to the temple, gotta take train from Xi Men Ding.

For the 2nd group, we had craving for BEEF!!! We couldnt eat beef the first 7 days cos Grp 1 didnt eat beef and we are nice, so we catered for the general public. Heh.. So.. to satisfy that craving, we first headed to this beef noodle store that we eyed a few times but didn’t get to try!!
