Today, we will not be travelling alone. Dar's suppliers in Taiwan, Ricky and girlfren, Ivy came down from 新竹 and brought us to "阳明山" for sight-seeing and "士林夜市" to try their local cuisine. It was the biggest 夜市 in Taipei.
Ricky and Ivy came to our hotel to pick us. He then drove us to "阳明山", we will be having our lunch there. Upon reaching the foot of "阳明山", we waited for another supplier and his girlfren, Owen and 小林. While waiting, we took some photos for fun. I saw this notice and decided to take a photo, cos it was interesting...!!!
寻鸟启示 - searching for a bird..!!!???
A pub named "The Pig"!!!???
Dar decided to have some fun with the public phone!
A residential apartment.
Taken at the foot of the mountain!
After about 45mins wait, Owen and girlfen finally arrived! We then drove up to "阳明山"! Halfway up the mountain, we stopped by a restaurant for lunch. It was not a classy restaurant, but it was quite unique. We sat near a pond, where the patrons can fish in the pond. You can choose to sit outside with the public or choose to have some privacy in the little huts, which can accomodate 10pax in each hut.
It was a sumptuous lunch and I felt very satisfied and was in high spirits! Seriously, with such a cooling weather, 整个人觉得精神益益! 真舒服!
We continued driving up the mountain. As we ascend higher up the mountain, it became more n more foggy. Soon our vision of the road ahead of us was just fog. It was pretty dangerous to drive at such conditions. We stopped by the road side to take some photos!
The road ahead!
Now you dun see it, now u do!!!
Suppose to go to "小油坑" to see some formation of the mountain...but it was just too foggy! Did not get to see!
Just saw some bubbling hot water seeping from the ground below. It was stinky...!!!
Since we were not able to see anything due to the thick fog, we then head to "阳明公园". It was the YangMingShan Flower Festival, so seems like we can't give it a miss since we were already there. As it was a weekend (Sunday), all the carparks were fully occupied. We've got to park further away and walked to the garden which was about 20mins walk. Luckily, I wore a comfortable pair of shoes!
Kenny's suppliers - very camera shy, only managed to take their back view...hee!!!
Stopping for some snacks. They had ice-creams and I had this:

Spending almost the whole day there, we left the place in the evening. Had a drink @ Starbucks before leaving "阳明山"!
The long walk out and the shy hosts!
