We both woke up freaking early in the morning to get to Changi Airport T1. Our flight was at 7am, so you roughly know what time we have to be there.
While waiting, we thought we should settle our breakfast first before boarding as Jetstar does not provide free meals onboard. And if you were to pay for them, they are very expensive.

We dined in this 24 hr eatery called Ruyi, and we realised that it is something similar to a fast food restaurant under Tung Lok.Food was not too bad actually, not cheap anyway.
When we were in the plane, we were asked to fill in this immigrations form which will be needed when we get into Taiwan.Flight was about 4 hrs plus, so we took the chance to catch a small nap.
Upon arrival, we went over to the Tourist Service Center to get our Youth Travel card. Its a card that gives you many many discount for food and places of interest. And the card is free, so why not?
This is our DIY itinerary booklet which we spend $80 to print. So expensive can?!
The cover page is funny! Hehehe!
Initially, we wanted to cab all the way to our hotel. But decided to take bus instead. It was so much cheaper, we saved more than half of what we could have spent.
And so we arrived at our hotel. Surprisingly, it was very pretty and very spacious! Best of all, we paid only about 80 bucks a night. Super shiok! Got bathtub some more leh!
When we reached the hotel it was about 2 pm, after we wash up and unpack some of the stuffs, we thought that we can just keep the day light and just go to shilin ngiht market.
Neither did we expect to see a pet shop located right in front of our hotel. So happy can? Bought quite a bit of stuffs for Jiajia from that shop.

Food there is freaking cheap ah!

This was our first round purchase!
Baby got his jacket there. The kind that is good for winter, able to withstand strong wind and on top of all that, looks good.
And it is relatively cheap. About $40 plus $50. As compared to Singapore, if you were to buy a winter jacket from any travel store. It will cost at least $100 over and it looks so fat and puffy. And worst of all, they are not good and you will still feel cold despite wearing so much.
So, if you want something nice, not so thick but able to take cold weather, buy it from that country itself. It is so much better there.

Oh ya, bras are very cheap there too. Heheheh!
After we drop off our purchases at the hotel, we went out again for second round!
Came across this shops that sells doggie clothes! So cute ah!There dogs there all wear clothes because of the temperature.
If one day, i were to move to Taiwan, it is because of the doggie reason. There dogs are allowed in the mrt and shopping centers. Dogs dont have to leash, they get to run around freely and no one is afraid of dogs there.
Sucks that our country have so many rules and regulations. :(
Anyway, we had a bowl of mee sua. Its was really nice. Weather was cold, about 13 degree or something. A nice hot bowl of mee sua really hit the spot.
This is our total damage for Day 1. We really spend like nobody business!Day 2 coming right up. :D
