It had been a while since Keykey had blogged. Over these years, Big Key and Lady Key had gotten married and gave birth to Baby Key.
Keykey is very excited and wanted to bring Baby Key overseas to take a look at the sights. Keykey fondly remembers his trip to Taiwan back in 2011 and decided to bring Baby Key there!
It was one of the most memorable trip where Keykey, together with Big Key and Lady Key travelled to Jiufen, Hualien, Taichung and Cingjing, catching the sunrise at Hehuanshan. Keykey particularly enjoys the process then of planning the visit and executing the plans.
Similarly, Keykey will bring everyone along on a F&E trip. The participants include Big Key, Lady Key, Baby Key, Lady Key parents and Keykey!
It will be a 8 days trip, covering Miaoli (4days) and Taipei (4 days). Keykey researched intensively and found that it is the Tung Flower season this May. The Tung Flower is something special to the Hakka community and the Hakka community is quite big at Miaoli County which is in between Taoyuan and Taichung. Not too far off from Taipei.
For the trip, Big Key and Lady Key used their miles accumulated to book SIA business class tickets for the leg to Taiwan so that Baby Key can have a more comfortable journey and economy class for the return leg.
This is the first time Keykey is taking Business Class!
After collecting his tickets SQ876, Keykey headed straight for the SilverKris Lounge at Terminal 3 Changi Airport. Yum yum! The food selection is not bad and more than enough for his tiny stomach!

Big Key Portion! Not Keykey's portion
Futuristic looking LG machine to iron clothes automatically. Too bad Keykey does not have clothes to iron.
Keykey has not gone to the airport for far too long. There are now many new machines for Keykey to tap tap tap. This is a machine to change leftover foreign currency into gift cards.
Then, there are these machines where Keykey can buy overseas sim cards, socks and even diapers for Baby Key! There is also a mystery surprise which Keykey tried. He dropped in $2 and got a pair of ankle socks.
The business class seats. Very comfortable and can be lengthened to almost lying position. Baby Key had a fun time climbing on Big Key throughout the trip. Baby Key's box of puffs at the cup holder!
The air stewardess gave Baby Key some toys to accompany him. Keykey wanted one for his very own!
Hi fellow plane on the right!
Clear skies ahead
Appetiser for Big Key. The breads are hot and nice
Before the trip, Big Key had ordered a Grilled Angus Beef Burger through the Book the Cook service. It was very good!
More pics of the juicy burger
Lady Key's Poached Egg served with Hollandaise Sauce through Book the Cook service too. Nothing too special though.
Baby Key's meal is not featured though as he slept during the flight. Luckily, Keykey kept it safe for him. It consists of numerous bottles of baby food.
The flight took around 5 hours and soon we landed at Taoyuan International Airport. Upon touch down, Big Key headed straight for Counter 3 Unite Traveler to collect his 10 days Chunghwa Telecom Sim Card. It consists of 10 days data (in fact a bit longer as the first day of activation is complimentary and not included in the 10 days) and NT$100 credit for calling. He bought it through Klook and only paid $18.50 for it (after USD 3 aka SGD4.50 discount). It is far cheaper than the original price of $23 due to the referral code from his friend. You can sign up through this link to enjoy the USD3 aka SGD4.50 discount! 3/5/7 days plans are available too.
After exiting the arrival hall into the public area, turn right and turn right.
Further details at the booth. Do bring along your passport and another photo ID. It took only 2mins to get the card with pre-purchase through Klook. Simcard needles are available there for free usage. Keykey used it to hotspot everyone with an old iphone and it works well. Fast internet speed and good coverage throughout Taiwan (impt when Keykey starts his adventure in the woods of Miaoli!)
After getting the sim, we went to get our rental car. There is this booth on the left side just outside of the arrival hall. Approach it and tell him about the rental or rent direct. He will know what to do and who to contact.
Wow such a wonderful & informative blog. Thanks for it...
