Nurses' Day 2023

At Sentosa.

SG Emergency Nursing Masterclass

Taiwan 2023 Day 7

Local breakfast from 永和豆浆

Bought a little too much hahahaha but ahhh so satifying~

A pity my morning stomach cannot stomach more

After breakfast, it was nua time again~

Checked out at about 12noon and deposited our luggage again while we head out for lunch

As we were still feeling full, we skipped straight to dessert again~

Sesame and peanut icecream 

Super nice! The flavours were infused into it~ 

Creamy and thick texture, the sesame syrup was a cherry on top!

Next stop Ice-cream part 2~

I loved the combi I got, Milk, Green Bean, Mango~

Yumz~ 

Time to lug our luggage again...

I swear everything about Taiwan is great, just the pedestrian walkway...

seriously could and should do better.

Took the metro from Huanbei to Taoyuan Airport Terminal 1

Loved that there is so much luggage space!

Lunch right after reaching cuz we were getting hungry - though it was like 4pm 

Yumz! Also my gastric was threatening to cause trouble... so the soup really helped a lot

Checking in after returning our wifi router~

Straight to the lounge after clearing the immigration customs

Was starting to feel unwell, 

a migraine brewing and my head felt like pressure imbalance and I was feeling nauseated

Bad timing... Wanted to thoroughly enjoy the lounge experience...

At that point in time, I only wanted to lie on the sofa which, thank god was super comfy

#Thingsyou'donlyfindatatasplaces 

Trying to smile for the camera to at least capture some memories

Resting a while before getting up to get food

As expected this alcoholic went and explored the -OH

And she has officially found her favourite alcohol 😮😂

All that I managed to stomach

Chocolate Danish, Black sugar Boba bun, Curry samosa, Laughing cow cheese cube

Italian coffee

Later took some marinated jellyfish to try.

A pity I didn't feel well enough to try more.

Also was trying to leave some stomach for airplane meal.

Lounge Toilet before proceeding to the gate~ Loved the aesthetics!

Just had to... Feed the eagle statue. 😂

Walking towards the gate

This walkway was an art piece itself

It played a song by Lala Hsu with the lyrics written in a calligraphic font on the wall

“在旅行的路上”

It was about Taiwan, their homeland

“在旅行的路上 有些事我们慢慢讲
有个热情的地方 名字叫 台湾
我们将脚步放慢 聊著天在路上
你行李装满 远赴他乡的梦想

在旅行的路上 有些事我们慢慢讲
有个热情的地方 名字叫 台湾
我用思念在酝酿 牢记你的模样
挥挥手再见 祝你 旅途平安”

More cute art along the walkway

I was worried we'd miss that plane

Brisked walk all the way after that

Gate A2 was damn far!

Luckily, boarding was delayed by 20minutes so we sat down and waited

Boarded! View outside the window~

It was a pity my headache was taking control by the time the food was served

Feeling nauseated, my phone ate most of the food. LOL.

I was bedazzled when I saw the gold flake on the Ang ku kueh.

Like... Nanikore??

Letting my phone eat the food instead

Slept all the way after until 30min before landing to go pee

Took a private hire car by Tada back from the airport after clearing SG customs

Back to reality 😖

Taiwan 2023 Day 6

 

Last morning at Itathao

Last breakfast at the 旅店~

Took 小黄车 to 台中火车站~

The seat of the car puzzled me and gave me maggie lines on the back of my thighs

I swear it was almost like those dust-trapping welcome mat texture

Retrieved our tickets bought online from the ticketing machine

Walking about the station while waiting for the train to arrive

Cute pop-up at the side of the station

Sumikko Gurashi!

Bought a drink before rushing back up to the platform

The train was PACKED 

Thank god we purchased a seat

Crammed with our luggage

After literally dragging our luggage for about 20min along a very not luggage-friendly path

We finally made it to our 3rd and last hotel 新舍 located on the 30th floor

It was just one floor worth of hotel but they had quite a number of rooms

Good quality rooms, though it was really quite small, 

with not much room to walk after opening our luggage

The toilet needed us to climb 30cm up a step tho, someone please explain this 😂

View from the 30th floor~

This hotel knows how to sell its pros, created this common area with tables and chairs

with a good view!

Cute little potted plant at the window ledge

Going out for lunch after depositing our luggage!

The original eatery in our itinerary needed us to wait for about 15min

So hungry us went straight into Sushi Express right next to it.

No regrets, sushi express kinda gave me back-at-home vibes

Went back to the hotel to check in before heading straight to POYA

Shopping!

Tried to clear as much of our leftover TWD here.

Headed straight to the night market for dinner after POYA~

Clam and oysters~

Wouldn't say they're super fresh, and the whole shop smelled like a fish market

2 Happy people after buying one whole round of food from the night market!

The place was less than a 10min walk from our hotel!

Yumz! Loved the pineapple prawn, and the crab stew!

The Takoyaki was kind of a disappointment and lacked taste.

and it was a full tako, including the head. Couldn't bring myself to eat it.

Enjoying the nice view and the peace and quiet of the observatory area after dinner

 

Someone explain why the abrupt popup at the peaceful-looking observatory XD 

Not really complaining though, kinda cute

After stashing our steals from POYA, time to crash~

Good night~ We fell asleep after taking sips of plum wine and watching 蜡笔小新 movie

Couldn't believe the next day was our last day in TW!
