Look! heart shape butter sponge cake with smiley face!

We're on the bus ride to Tao Yuan High Speed Rail (台灣高速鐵路, commonly known there as 高鐵 ), similar to Japan's bullet train. Going to take the train down to Taipei (台北).

Here are some random street shots on the way there. You're going to see tons of random shots i took everywhere throughout this blog. I strongly believe that these shots is the best way for us to understand the city better, and the best way for us to remember the places. :)

One of the many wedding boutique. It's so huge! Sophia Wedding can also be found in Singapore. It's along the stretch in Tanjong Pagar (Tras street I think), that's full of wedding boutiques. compare the size of the shop if you're there! :)

One of the schools in Taoyuan. They even have student guards, who will salute when some big shots (probably their teacher, or principal) enters.

I can't remember if this is an apartment or office building. This is a common sight in big cities like Taoyuan, KaoShiung, Taipei etc. You don't get to see these in the more rural areas.

One of their second hand car-dealer. The grey car is only NT40,000 (around S$1818) and the green car is only NT100,000! (around S$4545)!
