175. Ahh Chips
I call this Ahh-chips, coz whoever ate this will definitely say "Ahh..."
It's made from Wasabi and one of the must try foods from Alishan ;p
The taste is quite nasty, first u'll feel hot but after sometime it become sweet. I quite like it and bought 3 packs !!! hahahha

This picture marked the end of my journey to Alishan, we'll move to different destination in next set of pics

181. MRT's inside view
This is how the seating arrangement looks like in Taipei MRT and TRA.
There are 3 types of train in Taipei:
1. MRT (Mass Rapid Transit)
2. TRA (Taiwan Railways Administration, which consist of local, semi-express and express train)
3. HSR (High Speed Rail)
The MRT train frequency during peak hours is around every 1 min, this picture is taken at 9.30am. Totally different with Singapore's MRT at 9.30am

Next few photos are compilation that I took while I'm in moving train, train station, etc2

187. Duck's Blood
Since the weather getting colder and colder, we went to eat something warm. This is meal made from duck's meat, blood (the dark brown color thing), tofu, corn and veggie mixed together in a pot with ginger + chinese medicine soup.
Tastes great and u'll feel really warm after eating this

This is the crowd stand / sat behind me. The whole 6-lane road was closed so people can see the fireworks from there.
