the theme of today's post is apple.
not nzj's apple. not the literally apple. it is the movie "you are the apple of my eye".
my apple is darling. what's yours? :p
we check out of minimi inn early in the morning and drove to taitung. had a pit stop halfway through the journey to have a pee break and photo taking.
presenting to you, the pacific ocean:
not forgetting, the four main characters of the brotherhood version of 那些年.
note: what i am typing below is entirely based on darling's perception of the four of us.
tyy starring as tyy - the special effects coordinator
xuehong starring as ashf - the gold with honours choreographer
hw starring as hw - the always think of funny yellow stuff king
nzj starring as nzj - the think out of the box and very honest ex dance president
in our brotherhood version, we have 热血,麻吉 and 青春. we do not have 九把刀, also do not have 初恋. i only have my apple in my mind right now.
our first destination is 太麻里金针山. we travelled 12 km of mountain route to the top of the mountain, to enjoy this super spectacular view:
真的是太美,太壮观了!!!
lunch at 深山亚都, located at the peak of 金针山.
go to 金针山 of course must eat the 金针!
there were 3 other dishes but we were so busy eating and we forgot to take photos. :p
青山农场, also located at 金针山.
hey i just met you, and this is crazy, but here's my number, so call me maybe?
the reason why i want to take this pic is because the colour tone of nzj's berms is very similar to the colour tone of my strawberry ice cream! but the pic come out already doesnt seem that way. :(
we are still at 青山农场, and it is time for bedtime story. today, i shall tell you the brotherhood version of little red riding hood.
starring ashf, who was a white riding hood, as red riding hood; tyy, as the big bad wolf.
red riding hood happily going to see his grandma while big bad wolf is lurking behind a tree, eating strawberry ice cream.
red riding hood was distracted by a random flower, and big bad wolf shall wait no further and decides to attack his prey!!!
feast and be-feasted! and they live happily ever after... NOT. just as big bad wolf was about to finish devouring red riding hood, the farmer of 青山农场 appeared. big bad wolf was too full and cannot run away to escape from the farmer. so the farmer killed big bad wolf and use the skin and fur to make leather jacket to sell to a particular singaporean who is willing to buy leather jacket at Turkey at US499. yay.
so little red riding hood go up to heaven, big bad wolf go down to hell, and both of them are reincarnated as.............
.
.
captain AMERICArrefour and THORn!!! save the world from evil!!! maintain law and order!!! justice shall prevail!!!
ok sorry for straying away from 那些年. let's continue.
brotherhood checked in at taitung traveler hotel, where they will be staying for 3 nights. and where do they park the car? you can never imagine...
at the hotel lobby!!! how cool is that?! it was particularly stressful when reversing the car from the street into the hotel lobby.
the cosy and comfy family room. it is good that we had such a nice room because we stayed inside the room most of the time, no thanks to the heavy rain.
那些年 ended day 5 with a yummy sumptous 铁板西餐.
lyrics of the day: 那些年错过的大雨...

day 3 - taichung to kenting
day 3 was really exciting because we are embarking on our road trip. we check out of tomato rooms in the morning and took the 922 am train to zuo ying train station, collected our rented car at 和运 and off we go!
the two drivers.
the vehicle commander and the entertainer/deejay.
hw was the first one to drive. it was a long scenic journey from kaoshiung to kenting. we stopped over at this place for lunch:
eat at 猪脚店 of course must order the 猪脚.
pig intestine.
炒板条
炒山苏. darling we ate this at hualien before. remember? :)
红烧豆腐. the compulsory tofu dish that hw wants. *how apt that he likes to eat tofu*
the whole meal cost NT1000.
i took over the wheel after lunch, and drove to our 民宿. our 民宿 is minimi inn. very convenient location. downstairs is the night market. and it is very cheap. each of us paid 25 sing dollars, for both nights. the only disgusting part is that we cannot throw our toilet paper inside the toilet bowl because the toilet bowl will get choked. so we can only put our stained toilet papers inside the bin beside the toilet bowl. yucks. reminded me of my overseas training camp at taiwan.
quite nice right? hahahahaha. well worth the money.
we put our things in the room and continue to explore kenting. it is super convenient to have a car.
i took a picture of this 民宿 because got my chinese name. hahaha. 岩手.
some lighthouse thingy. we couldnt go in because it was closed at 4 pm. we reached at 415. boo hoo hoo...
you can tell for yourself which photo is from me and which photo is from nzj.
out of the blue, we decided to do a dance photoshoot. the theme for the photoshoot is to recognise nzj's stature and efforts in nuscd, hence the theme is COOLIE.
the original coolie.
coolie xuehong.
coolie yy. (hw was busy eating his sun biscuit and din bother to do the photoshoot)
both xuehong and yy fail. let the original show us how it is being done.
nzj win! *clap hand clap hand* support original! no piracy!!!
we had early dinner at this nice bistro called 香蕉湾沙滩小酒馆. i found this place on a taiwanese local's blog.
the dinner also cost us NT1000. the 3 of them thought that the dinner was more worth it than the lunch. :p
drove back to our 民宿 and we explored the kenting night market! our 3rd consecutive night of night market action. zzzzzzzzzzzzz...
throwing darts to win prizes.
the prizes that we won:
day 3 concluded!
