USA – A day trip to the Big Apple.. New York City (1)

Finally the day has come. This post is about my trip to New York City. I started my trip early in the day where I drove my rented car to the nearest train station which was Croton Harmon Point and caught one of the earliest train to Grand Central Terminal.

Waiting in the empty train stain in Croton.

It took bout 80min to get the Grand Central Terminal; multi-stops. Once in NYC, it was drizzling but as noon approaches the sun came out.

My journey by foot begins……

Along the side walk.. I can see lots of florist. The flowers are fresh and vibrant in colours. Enjoy the my pictures of NYC.

Taipei – The City @ Night

Going out to Taipei city at night is always interesting especially near the Taipei 101 and the shopping area near there. In fact, near that area is also the office area. So there will be lots of tourist, local and also the office staffs.

I-City…. City of Lights??

Found out about a new (not so new to others) area near my place; about 30min drive.

The developers who developed the township with condominiums and shops lots found out that it wasn’t getting enough people to buy the shop lots or condo or go there. So, what they did was, they developed a water theme park and also a city of lights where the park is lighted up at night.

After 7pm…. there is a place in the park where it will be lighted up.

They did great in attracting people there at night only but still during the day… I can see most of the shops lots still vacant.
