we ate a nice breakfast at a coffee house nearby the hostel...was raining slightly, so the coffee house's aunties said that Wulai (烏來) will not be fun...and told us to go to Danshui (淡水) instead...and that we can also take ferry to cross over to Bali (八里)...so we changed our plan to go there instead...took the MRT to Danshui which is the last stop on the north line...lots of food stalls there...settled our lunch at one small restaurant...food was really nice!...had a little walk around the riverbank before we took a ferry over to Bali...well...we walked like crazy over there and really not much there to see over at Bali...or perhaps maybe we should have just rented the bicycles haha...took the ferry back to Danshui...tried the famous Danshui ice-cream...they are really cute and only cost NT10 each...then it started to rain heavily...luckily we never went over to the Fisherman's Wharf (渔人码头)...else we would have been stuck in the rain over there lol...plus u can't probably see sunset too in the rain right =)...went back to the hostel for a little washup and rest before heading to Ximending (西門町) for a walk...it was really crowded, with teenagers especially...lots of shops selling the latest fashion and anything that is young and trendy...truely the centre of Taiwan's youth culture...couldn't find any nice food there since our main aim was dinner...so we went over to Raohe Night Market (饒河街) for more food haha...how stupid that we took MRT to Taipei City Hall Station instead of taking the train to Songshan (松山) train station...so end up walking quite a distance again...argh!!! anyway really lots of food there and we ate and ate and ate...love eating those ices especially in such warm weather...couldn't finish walking to the end of the street since we had to catch the last train (yes...at least we are smart enough to take train now ^^")...but i will definitely come back again when i return to Taipei later hehe...
