Woot, we woke up 9am today to have our homecooked breakfast that 劉阿姨 prepared for us and the guest staying here.

Here's our nutritious hot soyabean to start off the morning

 
Here's a unique dish, I think is pizza on tooast... it's really good man.
 
And here is our yummy sandwich. seiok seiok breakfast heehee
 
Dear enjoying her food, ahhh there's nothing like a homecooked breakfast.
 
After our breakfast, we walk around the area to check out some of the birds and animals that she kept,
 
Nice right? this are the new wing of rooms that they built, and 劉阿姨 painted those with her husband.
 
 
 
劉阿姨 kept many different kinds of birds like chicken, turkey, peacock, duck ect... and their eggs supply came from the chicken haha pro right.... she also grow vegetable to be use for her cooking as well.
 
After our breakfast, our driver drove us up to the highest part of Hualien where a most expensive hotel in Hualien is.
 
The lobby of the hotel, nothing fantastic actually.
 
But the most beautiful part of this place is the spectacular view of the entire Hualien.
 
 
They also have a nice garden
 
 
 
Next he drove us to another place call Fongbin, along the way we stop by to take some photos of a field of Sunflowers hehe
 
Big big sunflower!
 
 
 
Manage to took some beautiful photo of a tiny lady bug. Love the details captured by the camera.
 
Here we are at Fongbin. Don't you find the shape of the cave looks like a shape of a car?
 
Haha was trying to take a good photo of this man fishing, I was adjusting the settings on my camera then suddenly.............
 
SPLASH!!!! one big splash of water came splashing on me and I was wet all over hahaha. Heng my camera and phone were ok.
 
 
 
The driver then drove us down to this seafood restaurant to have our lunch.
 
 
The food here actually not that nice, only thing that passed is maybe the chicken and the soup.
 
We then came to this place where they claim the sea is much nicer than the one in Australia.
 
Check this out, every part of the hill is created by volcano lava
 
 
 
Aren't the place beautiful and spectacular?! Really love this place man.
 
Here's the video of the place that we recorded (Click video to play)
 
 
Here we are! the famous water splash, can't really tell from the photo but good thing we recorded a video of it hehe.
 
You have to see this video guys. (Click video to play)
 
Time to leave this beautiful place and off to our hot spring!!!
 
Tadaaaa! here we are at Hoya Hot Springs Resort & Spa, the journey to this place took us like half hour man.
 

We actually wanted a private hot spring, but after taking a look at the public one and the room one, the public spa seems more fun with all the different types of water massager. FYI hot spring in Taiwan no need you to be naked, you have to actually wear swim wear to use it.

The hot spring cost us 220TWD each (about 9 SGD)

 
 
Here are some of the water massager you can expect at the hot spring place
 
Hoho this is our favourite massager, we can just lie down there for hours man hehe.
 
 
This is their hotest hot spring tub, measuring at about 42.6 degree, we can only tahan like 2mins inside haha,
 
Haha we at first thought this was a shower cabinet to wash away the residue on our body, but we were wrong.. (Click video to play)
 
After our relaxing hot spring, we head down hill to have our quick bite at this one of Hualien popular ba zhang place.
 
 
 
Their zang is bit different from ours, it's soaked with some kind of herb sauce which is slightly spicy.
 
And did I mention it's really yummy? hahah it's only 30TWD (1 SGD)
 
Next stop we arrived at Hualien well known place where they are famous for cow/milk products. They also have a field where they kept ostrich..
 
Here's their cafe where they sell products that is made from milk, like ice-cream, cake ect...
 
 
We tried out their milk ice-cream, ermmm bit too milky for us hah ahahaha so we don't really like.
 
 
 
Haha we bought a pair of cute couple mug and a pen from their souvenir shop
 
*kiss kiss*
 
Before heading back to StoneHouse, we have the driver to bring us to buy some fireworks, hahah check out the selection of fireworks they have man, and this is only one corner of it.
 
We bought this few types of fireworks for about 1200TWD (52SGD). Time to have our dinner first before we set the house on fire lol.
 
Here we are at their living room where we were have our dinner.
 
 
Hoho here's our dinner, and that's really one big pot of brewed ginger duck for just the two of us. Actually it doesn't taste that good as what other ppl mention.
 
After our dinner, we were greeted by the owner's dog name Neo Neo
 
Neo Neo is a very adoable dog, 劉阿姨 say Neo Neo was there when they built the place and been with them since 10 years ago. When ever 劉阿姨 going to head out, Meo Meo will standby and run ahead to the gate and wait for her car to leave the place then Meo Meo will return back to the house. So sweet right, if only Mocca can do that hahaha.
 
We wanted to play our fireworks but it's raining outside... so we decided to do some stone painting while waiting for the rain to stop. Here are some of the stone painted by the past guest.
 
 
Here's ah dear seriously painting her stone haha.. can feel the Don't Disturb Me aura lol
 
 
 
Tadaaa our finished art piece hehe.
 
Hoho, the most expensive type of fireworks among all, and the biggest hahaha it's like national day man lol. (Click video to play)
 
Next up is the all time favourite rocket type fireworks Pew PEw PEw (Click video to play)
 
We actually have to hold this by hand as the stand provided is not really stable, it might just drop and fire right at us. (Click video to play)
 
Last but not least is this really fun spinning firework, too bad the video can't really capture the pretty spinning motion of the firework. (Click video to play)
 
After our fireworks, 劉阿姨drove us down just around the corner where a 15days concert were held.
 
 
They also have many stall there that sell small bites food and drinks
 
Check out how big their Takopachi is!! its as big as a fist.
 
 
 
After the end of the concert, they have about 5mins of fireworks, I managed to capture them on photo with my super uber stable hands haha.
