Hualien's photos!

saw the time? 6.53am and we are at taipei railway station waiting for our train to hualien. yawns.only slept for 4 hours the night before.

and TAIPEI MAC DON'T HAVE MY FILLET O FISH BURGER.=(

our sleepy and stone look.

we are all not sitting together.-_-''.

been wanting to take train for long long time! but haven got a chance to take in SG.

this lucky meryl got a shuai ge sitting beside her..whereas mine is an old ah ma..who always give me a fright cos she will just walk out from her seat to go toilet w/o telling me. and without fail she will bump into my legs when i'm sleeping.

we've arrived! got a day tour cabbie package. on the way to Taroko.

see.even their toilet is so nicely decorated.

at the da qing shui xiao qing shui area.

the sea view is simply WOW. magnificent.

looking at the sea..hearing the sounds of the wave. i am in a place of paradise.

totally stress free place.

bullet train gg through the tunnel..

cabbie told us that this is the prettiest wave he have ever seen so far..

we're so lucky!

this is what they called...sea without borders.

aww..i am missing this place so much.

this is the only day we have so many 'nelle,meryl n riko' together photo.cos the cabbie tourguide is there to help us take photos. =D

somewhere near Taroko but not sure where..water is in greyish colour.

and it is a super windy day!

yes.we have conquered Taroko. (with lots of pain involved. mind you.)

cabbie wanted to bring us there but it is under maintenance due to typhoon for the past few days. He commented that typhoon is scared of us thus it is a 风和日历 day for us on that day. But apparently, we met with typhoon in taipei. -_-.and he is a super funny tour guide. he wanted 1 of us to sit in the front seat in order to accompany him talk during the long journey.

while we are talking..i keep saying "an lor"

then he started questioning me..

cabbie: i thought you are malaysian? malaysian don't "an lor an lor" de.

xiao nu zi: oh.i'm born in malaysia but moved to SG since young. so will "an lor" all the way.

cabbie: oooooo...no wonder! yesterday i bring a bunch of malaysians and they say they wun "an lor" de.

HAHAHA. whole cab is filled with laughter.

see the bridge? people used to walk from 1 end to another using this high high bridge. we are totally stunned when he told us.

HOW CAN THAT BE. the bridge looks 101% dangerous to me.

at the Swallow Grotto trail.

we tend to take photos when we are tired of walking.

now the real journey of Taroko starts.
b4 that we need to replenish our energy!

traditional rice box for lunch.how nice!

first time eating lunch with mountains and rocks behind.

here comes the tough journey..

we are walking and walking non stop..cabbie will usually drop us at the starting point then wait for us at the ending point.

we are playing around inside the cave..HAHA.

1..2..3..yeah!

our chinese is like half bucket lor. i wonder why Taiwanese will praise our chinese is so good..o_O cabbie says this is a must take area.then just snap ba.

here comes..he will always say.7 分像 3 分想像

can you guess what is this?

ta dah! can you see the shape of the fish?

this is is the funniest.

i confidently told him. it is a car!

then he is laughing so hard at me.-_-

meryl also think so what.

ok. answer is KING KONG.

from this photo, it is rather king kong alike. but when you are there. all you is a car.真的!

i seriously think all these got to do with the angle.

today is really a field trip day. but nature is really amazing.

He passed me a big torchlight and I finally know what is it for.
we walked though alot of tunnels, every tunnel is totally pitch dark.some is super wet and slippery..some tunnel have bats in it..what an adventure. and the best thing is. he PS us and we are to walk through the tunnel alone..rather scary ye.

I am just glad that we managed to survive tunnels after tunnels.

After walking through a few tunnels, now is time to walk on a long rocky pathway.

we are going to a water cave!

we are all exhausted. the pathway is so dangerous.they will show 1 roadsign : beware of bees.

another roadsign : beware of rocks falling from above.

-_-. life is in great danger.

ok. we are going to enter another tunnel again. we're used to it already.

mountains..waterfalls!

finally we arrived at water curtain cave..what a weird name uh..

there is a joke before us going in to the water cave.
there is another family who are about to go in the water cave and they got a dog with them. nelle and i were screaming and avoiding the dog like crazy.

total madness.

ok.time to put on the trench coat and off we go!

ahhhhh...we are screaming and yelling like hell when we are inside the water cave. partly because of the super chilling cold water, partly because we are stepping on rocks and might fall anytime. majority is because of this BIG slippery creature.

the cabbie will scared us by catching it and holding it in front to us..then the whole cave is filled with AHHHHHHHHHH.. 走开!走开!

hahhaa.think our screaming have already scared him off. omg.and there are simply more than 10 frogs we have seen inside the water cave lor...=(
quite a good experience but i won't want to try it again. cos i don't want to see all the frogs. btw we're rather wet with our trench coat on.

the long long long and shaky bridge which can only carry up to 10 people at a time.

haha.see this..

then this! initially we are all laughing at nelle when he wanted to take nelle drinking the water.

cos he always tell nelle to move upwards abit..downwards..change alot of positions.

ok.so everyone is supposed to take a pic like this! so cute ye.
but he commented i'm tall so no need to move so much.haha!

haha.another funny part. we JUMP alot of times lor..cos he wanted to capture the background of waterfall and us jumping at the same time.

can you spot the bats...all the bats...we are pointing the torchlight at them and they will let out some funny and eerrriee sound.

coming to the end of Taroko. we spent 3/4 of the day walking and climbing. tired.

the guan yin is high up the mountains.
this is at the stonehouse.our 民宿. we loved this place so much. feel so much like a home..with a helpful and friendly 刘阿姨 around, we get to play with fireworks etc. pictures on next post.

i will be back!

*u once said u'll be there for me...full of promises.but where have they gone to?*
