Taipei, Taiwan,Day One (Part 2)

December 10th 2009, Reached Taiwan Taoyuan Int Airport >Taipei Hostel

Although the flight took about 4hours and 10 minutes but I don't feel the long duration because I was having a good company ie a Taiwanese sitting next to me. Because four of us were travelling, HB requested for the seating position of two by two as not to leave FIL sitting alone on flight.
We reached Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport as schedule.
Due to the shortage of immigration card on board therefore we spend some time filling up the form before checking out from Taiwan immigration. The staff was friendly talking to Piew-Sze and I while checking our passports not like other countries which I've been to including ours.
The temperature upon reaching Taiwan was 29 degrees celcius. Wasn't cold at all as we hoped.Macau was 17 degrees celcius in December 2008 when I was there.
We were waiting for the bus no 33 to take us to Shereton Hotel, Taipei. The fare was NST90. Many travellers are waiting for respective buses too. It's convenient.
The bus ticketing counters in the airport where HB purchased the tickets.
HB and FIL sitting in front seat of us. PS and I were sitting at the last row of the bus which oversees the whole bus.
Along the journey, we managed to take pix of Taiwan petrol kiosk.
Crossing the road where the bus stopped, along the road, Sheraton Hotel is on the right. Straight ahead until the MRT station and immediately crossed the road on the left. Go straight until the apartment where there's a lane in between as the pix below.
It's Lane 5,LinSen N. Rd and walk along the lane.

Taipei Hostel is at the end. Walk into it and take the lift to 6th Floor.

This is my hostel room, No 2. No attached bathroom.
