Taipei Day Two

Agenda of the day: Wu Fen Pu (五分埔), shopping arcades: NY NY, Neo 19 Shopping Center.

Started off the day trying to find the nearest metro so we could get to Wu Fen Pu for some clothes shopping. In our stumbling about trying to get to the metro station, we found Taipei's Suicide squad... investigation squad I should say.After a little confusion we made it there ok.So many shops to choose from and so easy to get lost. Mainly got boots and a few T-shirts and tops. Sadly only bag I wanted to get I couldn't find my way back to the shop once lost in the maze.

Rather than spend the whole day at 1 venue, we made our way to Taipei city centre to try find my beloved Daiso at the New York New York shopping centre. I've said before part of the fun of exploring a new holiday destination is the getting lost. As such we had a lot of fun making our way there. On the way finding out how to get to Taipei 101, currently the tallest building in the world.

Cow decided to make a note of the showings of "Avatar" in 3D as hopefully we'll be able to catch a showing while we're here. Also while at it, managed to finally activate our prepaid WiFi card. just SGD$20 per month for unlimited and pretty fast internet access!

Had to make a move before midnight in order to catch the last train back to he hotel and rest up ready for another day. Well that was the plan but I guess the excitement of being here got the better of us and we didn't get to sleep till way past three in the morning!
