Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial, Fuzhou dinner and Bikini Party
Woke up in the mid afternoon, washed up and blogged, and immediately left for lunch. Hungry! I thought that maybe i should try out their fastfoods and compare if they tasted the same or not. To my disappointed. It was pretty bad.. They don't serve chilli sauce. And the McCrispy i had, had a really bad taste. The coke tasted like bourbon coke but doesn't have the same kick you get when you drink it. Price is about the same though.


4storeys high MacDonald. Just beside Ximending. I was looking at the posters of Kungfu Panda when this guy came. Doesn't he BEAR a slight resemblance to the panda?
Went to Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial immediately after my lunch. It's located just 2 stops from Ximen Station, which is actually one of the reasons i chose to go. Very near. Lots of sightseeing to do once i reached there. 2 of the buildings are under renovation, if im not wrong, so there was only the memorial to see. The orange roof-top buildings were off limits.









He looks quite dashing in his 17yrs old photo. And the other one is with his bride.





I found out, the side of the building is the entrance.. You don't have to climb the stairs, like i did.. The souvenirs and displays are on the ground floor!! Anyway, you cant dress shabbily otherwise it's disrespect to Mr First President Chiang Kai-Shek. Even if it's a hot day, you can't wear slipper and shorts. I just pass the mark, i wore berms and shoes. =D

Everytime i see an old couple happily together, i feel so happy for them. Their relationship lasted till their dying days. They managed to overcome all obstacles. They really have undying, everlasting love. Young people nowadays, only know what they like, there's no little sacrifice. I'm so jeaLous!! So SweeT! Anyway, i did ask for their permission. =]


Not only are the people in taiwan friendly, even the pigeons are friendly!! This one allows me to lie down next to it and took this shot.
Went to meet Kenneth after the trip. He was chilling out at the cybercafe. Cybercafe with comics and food and of course internet access. He was waiting for his dad and "auntie' to finish their foot massage.

The price for an hour is NT$80 and comes with a free drink. You will have your own individual booth and desktop. Or you can choose a booth with the thousands of comics on the shelves. Very cosy environment for someone who wanna fill their time while waiting for someone.
We met up with Kenneth's dad and "auntie" and the pub owner, his son and daughter-in-law, and some other elders at the pub where the auntie is singing at. She is a veteran, in singing. haha. We walked across the street to Ximending and into one of the buildings and had oursevles a Fuzhou meal. The cuisine consist of alot of food which most of the names i already forgotten. Took some of the pictures only when we started to halfway through. Sorry! haha. Anyway, though it doesn't look presentable like most western food. The chinese food here, tastes good. Western food look good but they might not taste as good as it looks.










A very filling dinner it was indeed. And the best part about eating with adults. Its free, Of course, there's the downside too, they will ask you to DUO CHI DUO CHI.
After the dinner, we went to Ximen station for the ride to Zhongxiao Dunhua for the party. On our way there, in the middle of Ximending, there's this group of Bboys, with their big Amps, blasting hip hop and doing some poping. And they sure attracted some cheers from the all youngsters crowd. I think you only see these street performances on fridays and weekends.


Went for starbucks with Kenneth near Zhongxiao Dunhua station, while waiting for Jingjing and gang. Saw alot of very sexily dressed gals going into Club Luxy. Finally, Jingjing called with the address of the pub and we went to take a taxi. Apparently, the place is within walking distance and taxi driver asked us not to waste our money and walk. HAha. So we started to ask directions from either cute or pretty gals till we manage to find the location. Entrance for gals is free if they strip into their bikinis or they pay $500 and guys is NT$1000. I only paid $800 cause 2 of the gals fork in for me. The place is very well furnished and the atmosphere is more like its for regulars.








Doesn't the lady in the green top looks a bit like Lin chi ling, the taiwanesse top model? Well... Sorry to inform you guys. She's a faggot! YEah, a shemale. Hahaha! The gal in the black bikini is one of their bartenders. And no, she's not a faggot. =]
Halfway through the drinking, they announce a bikini contest. and the contestants are suppose to show why we should vote for them. We have a sticker each, and voted by sticking them on the contestants.








yeah, she is much taller than me. >.< And yeah, she really flipped up her skirt infront of me to let me have a full view of her butt. >.<'' The guy with the red undies is just a joke, he's not one of the contestants. Haha.
There was also a beer drinking contest. 10 aside and face off. There were 8 teams. Including mine. Losing team have to drink one glass of whisky neat. But before the game ended, the cops came up and checked all our IDs.. Spoilers.. Took a long time too. The host decided to treat everyone with champagne which is the only thing that was off limits in the all you can drink list.

Managed to sneak in a photo with them, while they weren't looking. Haha.
Everyone starts getting drunk and we left at around 2.30am. Took a cab back, which cost just around NT$170. Actual price is NT$150, additional NT$20 is for midnight fare. Since i wasn't drunk, i went for a shower and went for supper.

This meal only cost me NT$55. Rice and soup, definitely cheaper than i thought. They ride beside you and tell you they have nie young gals. As young as 16yrs old, only cost 3.5k a night or if you want 3k a night will do.
