DAY 3 - Qijin Island (Xizi Bay), Zuoying Senior High, Liuhe Night Market

Today is the 3rd day for us in Taiwan. We went for the traditional dance training with Zuoying Senior High. The practice is not as tiring as compared to traditional dance. But, I learnt something from them. After 2 days of training, I actually noticed that they can hold onto their positions for quite long. It is definitely more than 8 counts. I am really impressed by them as they never ever complain about it. I promise to learn from them. We also went to ride a 4-wheel bicycle around an island and this experience taught me teamwork.

This is my third day in Taiwan. It was a very tiring day for us.We went to Qijin island, Xizi Bay in the morning and we get to experience the thrill of riding a 4-wheel bicyle as a team. The weather and climate there is a nice place to take photographs. Later, we went to practise dance training with the seniors from Zuoying Senior High. Even though they are good in their flexibility, they did not put us down but helped us along with the exercises. From this experience, I can say that people in Taiwan are very friendly and helpful and I must learn from them. The short dance choreography they put up for us is another wonderful learning. From them, I learn resilience by not giving up even if you cannot do it properly but if you practice you will get it right. We end off the day with a visit to the night market. It is an unique experience as we seldom have such a big scale night market in Singapore.

Today was our third day in Taiwan. Today we went to Xizi bay and took a ride on Qijin ferry and discover Qijin old street. At Qijing, we took a ride on a bicycle which can take 4 people. This bicycle are hardly seen in Singapore. After riding for awhile, we stop at the beach on Qijin and rested there and even took photo there with my friends . After coming back to xizi bay,  We went to the school to have our dance training together with the Taiwanese students, we managed to challenge ourselves further and even learn new dance movements. We went to the night market after that and played mini games with our friends and eat the smelly tofu. We really had lots of fun as its quite rare in Singapore to find a night market which have rides and also nice food to eat. This is definitely one of the days I would remember during my trip in Taiwan

In the morning, we took the ferry to Qijin island. In the ferry we see motorcycles. We were told everyday people would take the motorcycle through the ferry to travel back and fro due to work, the hardship of the people. After we arrive, we saw many 4 seater bicycle. All of us took one in fours and ride away.  It was one of my best time, the cycling trip was really thrilling and exciting. I learnt from this experience that safety comes first and then fun. After that, we returned to Zuoying Senior high and dance with level 3 seniors. I met this 2 Senior who is very nice to us. The traditional dance was the best! We learn a lot about teamwork. At night we went to Liuhe night market, we bought many things and rode a mini Viking. It was really fun. In conclusion, we learnt how to control our expenses, have teamwork, fun, built up my confidence and the notion of  "No pain,  no gain".
