This day started even later, okay, my fault, I woke up around lunch time. It’s a slow day, we went to have super late lunch at Saizeriya (this Japanese Italian place) in the food court next to MRT Taipei City Hall station. While we were having lunch, my sister went to have a book signed by Jostein Gaarder (author of “Sophie’s World”)!

After lunch we wandered around Xinyi district a bit (even though it was raining!). This is where Taipei 101, Taipei City Hall, the big ass bookstore mall Eslite are located.

There is also a Taipei Lantern Festival happening in front of Taipei City Hall, but compared to the sky lanterns at Pingxi, it was meh.

And then it was back to Taipei Main station for the underground mall and more winter wear shopping.
