Taiwan 2015 - Day 5 (平溪 / Kiki)

28th Dec (Mon)

Today will be our day trip to 平溪~ finally got our chance to release 天燈! was kinda rush as dun wan to miss the train schedule, else has to wait for 1 hr again! took train from 台北 to 瑞芳.. den hv to go buy ticket for 平溪線一日卷 NT80, with unlimited stops within one day.. but is too hard to visit all stops as only one hr one train~ imagine tt again.. phew.. 


ard 50 mins train with no seats available.. leg damn tired.. and in need of toilet out of sudden.. haven buy tic somemore.. 10mins to finish all is so rush.. and worse sprain my side when out of toilet.. nearly blackout while waitg for train.. heng everything is ok after tt.. 






and sad to say.. the train to 平溪 is SO CROWDED! and all squeeze in this pathetic train.. y soo many pple when the weather actually drizzling, still... and another 50mins of STANDING! omg.. and finally majority alight at 十分 stop and managed to grab a seat.. 





reached 青桐 stop, was still raining.. and everyone will take pic with the train while is still here.. nt many pple and nt all shops open.. well, hv to wait for one hr to go next stop.. here is to see the bamboo with wishes written on top.. 


















Up to train to go 平溪 stop.. here see the 老街.. grab some food and took some pics... here also have pple releasing the sky lantern.. but most pple will release in 十分 instead..



the real timetable for the train arrival! 






reached the final stop! 十分! and really 十分多人!jus see the ppl releasing 天燈 also making me feel excited.. haha.. decided to go for it first in order not to miss the next train... 







go for the colourful lantern NT200.. wrote 4 sides of wishes and waited for our turn to release.. the wind getting strong and starts to drizzle.. glad the pple there are kinda pro in taking fast pics.. and when released, nearly bang into another lantern.. heng sia~ both lanterns shun shun go up into the sky~ 





cant wait for the next train to get out of here.. tooo crowded with this weather.. feel bit moody and hungry.. and worse still, standing throughout the whole journey~~~~ *sad*
