Day 1: 120508 Taipei

Finally comes the long-awaited grad trip to Taiwan!

we took the 1pm jetstar flight to Taipei and reached Taoyuan International Airport @ ard 540pm..went registering for youth travel card, bought sim card and the GuoGuang Bus tix to Taipei Railway Station..which is located near to the Taiwanmex Hostel..

wasnt quite pleasant when we 1st arrived at the hostel cuz it appeared extremely cramped to us.. we couldnt check into our room cuz it was not available and was asked to loiter outside till about 10plus..so we left our luggage in the locker and went searching for food.. the lady which we met at the hostel was very nice.. we didnt see the owner yet..
the rest of the day was spent eating 鲁肉饭, 茶果 and noodles as found in stalls located near to the hostel.. we also visited taipei railway station underground mall.. too bad the shops closed rather early.. played basketball.. such arcades are found anywhere in taiwan within few steps apart.. huge craze for it!
