On board our flight, my sister and me having a picture taken by the friendly flight steward. 
And the sightseeing pictures... my family at Hualian. We took a train there from Taipei which took us 5 hours... Luckily we got to taste their Railway Lunchboxes which was surprisingly good. Comes in two variations- Pork rib and Chicken leg.... Both come with a braised egg and vegetables. Yummy~ 
And in Taipei, saw a huge board advertising Dongbangshinki's upcoming concert in Taiwan. Not a huge fan of them, but some of my friends are, so here's the picture for the them. Other pictures here include the city view from Taipei 101, at the cable station at Beitou for our hotspring experience and shopping at Raohe night market. We visited other typical tourist spots like Shihlin night market, Ximending, Keelong and others as well.
The weather was too hot as it was summertime when we were there, with temperatures hovering around 35 degrees. That's like Singapore or slightly hotter, I could not stand the heat! For food I think they just tasted normal, not as good as I expected from my impressions formed from Taiwanese variety shows such as Shizilukou. Shopping wise, the items are mostly available on spree websites so I did not see very unique items.
I have to commend that Taipei has a very good public transport system. The subway is new and clean, and the people are all very considerate in standing on one side on the escalator to give way to others. And the taxis and buses are cheap and easily avaible. The taxi uncles were all friendly and helpful, giving us recommendations on what to do and where to go.
Overall it was an ok trip, the best part would be the sq flight which I enjoyed the most. Hahaha~
