We accomplished quite a lot today... Went to Chiang Kai Shek Memorial and took lots of photos there... and guess what? As we were about to proceed to Taipei 101, we realised my battery was running low... I didn't charge my camera since the night before I left and we have taken like 800 shots cos everything we took was double since Deb was also using my camera plus all the spoilt shots etc (by the way, one of the best thing about my camera is that it can take around 1000 photos before the battery needs to be re-charged)... Cool right?!....
So no choice, we had to change our plan... We went back to the hotel to charge my battery while we packed lunch up to our room....
this was everywhere on the walls of the chiang kai shek memorial hall train station
students everywhere... some were practising gymnastics while others marching... i love this sight... there's just so much energy and life in these kids!
oooh... love this!... i've been seeing this since i was 8 years old... and finally i'm here!
do we look alike?

Back to our hotel room....
my favourite mee sua again...
can you see the satisfied look on my face?....
Later Deb went downstairs for lots and lots of shopping while I caught my beauty sleep... Hmmm... not bad right?... Come for holiday still can take a nap... heehee!!! She came back with so much loot that I was also tempted to go down and grab some... hahaha... So instead of going straight to Hello Kitty Restaurant for dinner, we decided to do more shopping!!! Wooohooooo....
hello kitty restaurant at da an road... it's easier to take a cab there than the train...
downstairs....
upstairs setting.. we personally prefer downstairs... :))
how can we miss the toilets right?... by the way, we realised that there was only "ladies"... didn't see any "gents" around... hmmm.... where do these male go when they dine with their girlfriends?... or did we miss the "gents"?

kitty konnyaku jelly
kitty cake... everything here is just so pretty and you can hardly bear to eat them...
