Uncle went back to the airport in the noon.
We decided to visit Taipei Zoo for the day!
Took train, changed till Mucha line (Brown) then we can go straight to Taipei Zoo. No hassle! Our travelling time should be between 30 minutes to 1 hour. Can't really remember.
The tickets to the zoo is really cheap, NT60 each (around SGD 3), which is much cheaper than to visit Singapore Zoo.
In addition, Taipei Zoo is the largest zoo in Asia (according to what the guide said when we were at Taipei 101).
The ticket.
Outside Taipei zoo.
We ate our lunch before walking around.
Note to Travellers: Bring your hat & sunblock when heading there, especially during summer time. It's really warm while you walk around the place.
More pictures, less words from now.

We walked for almost 4 hours for the whole place. It's really huge! Along the way, we bought many souvenirs. They have too many cute things there !
After that, we were deciding where to go. We wanted to go to Shifen (十分) to put the Sky lantern (孔明灯) but at that timing, we'll probably missed the train timing.
In the end, we went to Ximending instead.
Indeed, Ximending is one of the best places in Taiwan for teenages and young adults. They have soooooo many things there, including food !
We went straight to 小王子小公主童話美食茶坊 to drink tea. 2nd level, forget at which street. They have a very nice decoration there !
Cute place.
With cute painting.
After that, we went to find the dance shop for me to buy my pointe shoes. It's not very far away. After trying quite a number of shoes with different sizes, I got one chacott and one repetto pointe shoes.
Too bad that they don't have freed pointe shoes anymore.
Their Chacott is really cheap as compared to what they sell in Singapore. It's about NT1800 (around SGD80). Singapore's price is around SGD 120. Huge difference !

Next, we went to Animate because my sisters wanna buy manga there. It's really cheap to buy in Taiwan since it's translated there.
After that, we went to Modern Toilet Restaurant to have our dinner. As the shop name stated, the decorations are using those things which you can find in the toilet.
Toilet bowl and 'poo' at the entrance.

It's quite cool there and we saw some Singaporeans at the restaurant too.
After that, my sisters went to buy their perfume before going back to our hotel.
Here are the things which I bought.
Popteen; August issue !
My bunny puppet ! My new toy XD
My surname with the cute PANDA.
New hello kitty iphone cover !
Tired, I don't know how long have I been climbing up and down the stairs during my stay in Taiwan. Their subways are really unfriendly to the handicaps and the elderly.
Feeling bored. We went down and get more beers with weird flavours.
Beer! Strawberry/lime, Mango, Green apple, Orange, Peach and the normal Asahi.
My new pointe shoes; Chacott and repetto.
Don't ask me why the 2 repetto soles are different. One with La Bayadere written and one with La Carlotta written. It's given to me by the shop assistant.
Picked up the courage and sent the wishes. I'm glad that I received replies. It has been such a long time and it has never gotten out of my mind. Nothing ever changes.
cheery.
