2 movies on board, new year's eve and the sitter, both comedies. Both r quite nice. Still have some time to read at the end of the 4hr plus flight. Sq876 finally reached taoyuan int airport T2. Got connected even on board waiting for the parking bay to be freed for us to alight. Our baggage took some time to appear on the conveyor belt. Ss the wifi ssids and did the speedtest. Verfied foc and no login page. Usable. Occupational habit? No la, it's jus along the way. Since rmb, might as well. But i was alr chided the first time when i exclaimed at a humongous cctv cam right in front of the signboard! But cant help not noticing as it is clearly blocking my view of the words on the signboard. And if ever it is a ptz, it is jus gg to be staring at the board on the other side. I bet normal pple would notice it n im definitely getting a life here.
Strange. Following the signs with HSR led us to coach stand. Who cares as long as it takes us to the main station which is abt less than an hr away. 13 deg cel. Brrr. Cos of the rain i suppose. Didnt expect temp to be this low. Others are wearing winter clothing. Were braving the cold wind while waiting for the bus. So many new developments along the way. New expressways and buildings all under construction.
Taiwanese are really frenly and hospitable. Cosy n convenient hotel. Jus next to the bus station. Decided with beef noodle soup for lunch and then walked the undergrd mall before returning to the room. Missed the sky lantern festival but there's still the flower festival which also means crowd. 😪
Rain seem to have stopped. Shall chk out the night market n hopefully the tamsui river.
