Exchange rate: SGD1 = NT22.3

Going to Taipei to take our pre-wedding photos scheduled on 24Mar... Yeah.. I once asked my friend why we call those PRE-wedding photos instead of just wedding photos... oh well.. that is the convention because it is photos taken before wedding! so logical huh :p

We are taking our photos at this shop called 浪漫一生(RL). Signed up for it at a wedding fair at Suntec city on 14 Sept 08. We were there to take part in this competition organized by ST701 called "Feed me with your love". Just a cake eating competition which we lost badly because I couldnt swallow the cake fast enough. My bro was in the same competition and manage to get into the finals. Too bad he lost too... The 1kg cake was just too big for him to finish.. Actually we didn't have any intention to sign up for a wedding shot package... There was no proposal (still none as of now! :p), no wedding dinner planned, no housing planned and there we were swept away by the warm Taiwanese who showed us their packages and photos. Indeed, the photos look nice and natural... and that is just what we want.. something different... not the singapore flyer, sentosa blah blah blah...

Feb 09 is already coming to an end and we have to plan our accomodation quickly...  RL recommended some hotels to us... Most of them are damn x or too far away from the shop so we narrowed down to the few:
Price: 2112/2244 NT

Price: 1830 NT
