Hi, I'm Abby.Hi, I'm Bella.Welcome to Bella Talk. 你若來台灣,請你認著我。 除了你外,也有你視窗。 Hey, Abby, do you know this Taiwanese song 來去台東? No, I haven't heard that before. Like 去台東 in English means that go to Taitung. And in this song, it also introduces lots of tourist attractions in Taitung. Oh, it reminds me that we had a trip to Taitung during the Moon Festival holiday this year. Oh, you sure? We cut to the topic so fast. Yes, just this fast. Let's go to Taitung! And the first attraction we visited on the first day is Tianlang Tunnel. All of us are looking forward to it because Tianlang Tunnel is the first attraction in our trip. Wait, wait, you forgot a thing. You overslept on the first morning. Sorry, I didn't know the bed was so comfortable that I overslept. Sorry. OK, let's introduce Tianlang Tunnel. But the reality is always not as good as people want. Tianlang Tunnel is not open on that day. So, we go straight to Baishi Gazebo. The next stop is Baishi Gazebo. We overlook the sea and mountains there. Me and Yanhui also bought a branded bracelet there which is from Taiwan Indigenous True Cool People. And also, I lost it just a few weeks later when I rode on the Donghua Bridge. The speed I rode is up to 80 to 90. After Baishi Gazebo, the next spot is Machi Dome. Machi Dome is famous for the appearance of cats. And the shape of the cat resembles a domestic cat, Mach. Do you know this commercial? Mach. BB! Is that funny? Very funny. And it's also a good place to tag teachers. We spend a lot of time there tagging teachers. And the last one is Jinggang Road. That is a long and straight road that we can see the ocean at the end of the road. Many people stop at a curb to take pictures. So did we. Since the road is so long, we can hardly find people to take pictures for us. So we made two to take our bags and insert the selfie stick in the bag. Therefore, we could take pictures without others. So smart. So smart. And it's time for lunch. Yay! We have lunch at the Halila Street Vendor. We all think the food is delicious. But I'm not sure if it's delicious because we are hungry or the food is really amazing. And oh, I cannot with that. The weather suddenly rains heavily. We hurry to pack our luggage into the restaurant. We look like a drug addict. After lunch, we went to Sanxiantai. And I remember the wind was so strong that it started drizzling when we were about to leave. I heard that we can see many stars in the night there. So if there's a chance, I hope that we can go there again to see the stars. So sweet. And everybody knows that one of Taiwan's famous snack is stinky tofu. There is a very popular one in Taichung, Shenzhen. And we have smelled the aroma from a few kilometers away before we arrived. I know it's a little over-smelling, but it's really good. So stinky. When we arrived, there are so many people. To be honest, the stinky tofu is really good. If we have time, we should try again. Yeah. Because of the delay of time, we changed our plan from renting bikes to ride at Mr. Brown Avenue from just walking and taking pictures at there. So the scenery was beautiful. The holiday class made the pictures hard to take. Every picture after me is so many people. And I want to cut them all. Go away. And it's time to go to guesthouse. I have to say that the life in Taichung is very dangerous. The streets are dark, almost have no street lights. During our journey to the hostel, we even got lost in the field. And couldn't see anyone except Mandy who was sitting in the back seat. And it was really scary. But after we found the right path and saw our friends, we were really relieved at that moment. Finally, we arrived at Homestead Cafe. But we were too late to book the hostel. So all the barbeque place is occupied and we cannot barbeque at there. So we start to eat outside. It's dinner time. We plan to eat at Mong Baba restaurant. We can't wait to see how good it is. However, things didn't go as we expected. Then we searched for another one and it is called Li Bo Bo. So we changed from father to uncle. After dinner, we went to 7-11 to buy our dinner. Then we went back to our hostel and played poker again. And I remember that we played so loud and nearly someone knocked our door. But we didn't open it yet. Everyone is so scared. And it's second day in Taitung. The first stop on the second day is Ruyi Gaotai. And the scenery seen from the highland is really beautiful and breathtaking. When I stand on the highland, I feel that human being was really small and nature surround us easily. It was really relaxing there. And feeling the wind from the nature. But because we are running out of time, so we went to the next stop. And the next stop is Duoling Station. And Duoling Station is known as the most beautiful train station in Taiwan. And we couldn't overlook the Pacific Ocean. But it took a little hard work to see the beautiful scenery. Because the motorcycle can only be parked under the mountain. We must walk a short distance to arrive the station. And I remember that I rode too fast. And you guys got lost and talked. And you just come to me and so mad at me. It's like, what a pity. Can you drive slowly? And I think that's a small part in our three-day trip. And I also found another particular part here. It's that everyone have never seen train. Because when the train pass by, everyone just... And talking to each other. And... Lunch time! Yeah, again. Lunch time! We went to Ding Lun Beef Noodles to have lunch. Unfortunately, again, they have sold out since the crowd. So we went to eat Thai Mali Beef Noodles. Thai Mali Goobie! Thai Mali Goobie! And when it comes to Thai Mali, It reminds me of a song by Jo Kwon. Oh, enough, enough. Do you want? Yeah, enough. I can sing for you. And for Thai Mali station itself has no special features. But the most beautiful thing is the scenery of the sea and sky in front of the station. And the street avenue seems to lead to the Pacific Ocean. There are a lot of tourists taking pictures there. So we need to line up. But everything is valuable. Yeah, so... Last, we were about to go to Tainan City! Tainan City! Yeah, finally. Tainan is so long. We assigned everyone to three routes. So that we can buy every food that we want as fast as we can. And we don't need to waste time to wait in the long line. Yeah. Because we just like other tourists. And after dinner, we went to Tihua Village. And Tihua Village is a bazaar and music village. A village at night just like a small night party. Yeah. Painting small hearts, hot air balloons and creative markets to enjoy and play. And many street singers. And the singer is very handsome. And we could fully feel the vitality of Taitung at night. I also got my first henna tattoo there. It was so beautiful. So beautiful, you know? And we are going to go to the third day. The first stop of the third day was Jialun Park. It was full of crowds again. And the weather was so good. I just wanted to take a picture and hurry to go to the next stop. And the next stop is Wubishi Fishing Port. Wubishi Fishing Port is located in fishing village in Changbin. It's a natural fishing port formed by sea corner. Because the rock is kind of like human nose. It's named Wubishi. When we arrived there, I don't think we are in Taiwan. It's very beautiful. Yeah. And I know I am over standing again. But I really like there. Then we go to eat lunch. And it's the last meal of the three days. I remember last I just had a soup because of the hot weather. After the lunch, we walked to the Chef's Eye Store just on the same road. Since we almost had a heat stroke. Then it was because of the hot weather again. And the crowds that I didn't want to stand in a long line to wait for Donghe Baozi. Next time, I will choose a place and wait her to buy it. And finally, we are going to leave Taitung. Taitung, bye bye. We got back to Hualien, a traffic of cancer. It was interesting that we were at 23.5 north latitude. Hey, Abby. Which is your favorite attraction during this day? Let me think about it. I think the most I love is compared to those attractions. I love the time we rode our motorcycle along the ocean side. I think that's all. That will be a good memory for me. And you? And my favorite one is Wubingshih Fishing Port. I've never been to such a picturesque place like that. And I'm willing to go to Taitung again just for there. And I can even spend whole day to stay there. OK, that's a wrap. We are Eighth Out of Twelve. See you next time. Bye bye. Bye bye.
