Taiwan Part I

So I've told u guys so much about being in Taiwan. My first time overseas alone (in other words with no parents or sis around me la). Weee~ It was indeed an unforgettable experience la. We (my friends n i) basically went with just the clothes on us as well as in our suitcases with no plans where to stay what-so-ever and to reach Taipei by the 25th of Aug for the registration for AMSC. Oh yea! For those who are still unsure kenapa si Karleen ni pegi Taiwan tetiba pula, it's all business ok. But then slit in some pleasure on the way la.. Hehehe :)

We took off on the 22nd of Aug in KKIA terminal 1 all the way to Kaohshiung. Kenapa pegi Kaohshiung? 2 reasons. 1 flight ticket cheaper. 2 Nak explore Taiwan from south up. Hehe :) Jadi kita pun terbang la at 1520 tat day.


Wing Hoh, K Mint n I onboard MH 86, BKI-KHH
Tengok aircraft can guess apa aircraft tu? We sat on Boeing 737. Kecik la, tapi okie la. Not like tat fat oso kan? lol. So after 2 hours and 40 mins, we finally could get a glimpse of
Kaohshiung!!
Taken when we were about to land
Imagine our excitement la. All 5 of us were all so excited. Me without camera oso ambik gambar ngan handphone oso. All photos kat blog will be pics taken from my fon. Other pics from my frens cam i may jz upload later in FB, or as u hv noticed my friends i met through AMSC has uploaded pics throughout d conference d. My camera, i mean my sis cam sudah rosak dibuat saya (sorry!!), so tis is the consequence la. Pegi overseas tak bawak camera. Anyway, first place i visited, the toilet. Cos i don like using aircraft toilet. Lol

This was pasted on the door of the toilet. Lol.
Can understand d line above? if you don't, I'll translate it later for ya. Ask me la. hehehehe.. So as bukti/evidence I betul2 gi Taiwan
Saw the many2 posters of Taiwan?
So we arrived about 1815 in Taiwan, on schedule and head on straight to information counter to decide where we wanna go next. Discuss, discuss and more discussion, we made an impulsive decision to go all the way south to Kenting, Taiwan. Check Taiwan map kalau tak tau. :P This place is a reknown tourist spot in Taiwan, a coastal area la. So imagine white sandy beaches. The view there is just fantastic la! Kalah PD although i love PD with all my heart.
Here's one of the beaches i visited
I so wanna jump into the water, but we were on a tight schedule so tak dapat la. Next visit la if i ever visit Taiwan again. It was very windy, very nice.
Me at the beach. Windy kan?
So we went off for breakie in a small shop just across the road from the beach. Food here is quite pricey compared to Malaysia. Something like Sabah, but if u take into account the portion and all, here more pricey la. After having breakie, our 1st stop..
Can read??

Took another pic here. Kenting National Park.

Admission fees was a mere NT20, which is almost equivalent to Malaysia RM2 la. Cheap rite? We applied for the international youth travel in Taiwan so we got it cheaper. So for those who are heading to Taiwan, remember to apply ohr! FOC and you save a bundle. Y go to a park u ask? Just take a look at the pics i took at the park
At the entrance

The kissing rocks

Kenting's own lighthouse. Macam kat PD kan??

Our last stop from our walk around the park.
The whole trip we were all so mesmerized by the beauty of the nature surrounding Taiwan. Makes u wanna visit urself too kan? Well just looking back at the pics, i wanna visit the place again myself! Our time was so limited, but just the short stop was enough for us. Then we went on to explore Kenting. Most pics are in my fren's cam, but here is the last pic i took
Breathtaking ain't it?
Really had a lot of fun, goofing around, cam whoring to the max in Kenting. Tapi tak jadi show kat sini la. When i get hold of the pics later baru i show u guys la. Hehehe.. no prob. So tat's all of my Taiwan part 1 la. Till the next post!!
