溪頭及日月潭之旅

 麒麟潭

十月中旬秋高氣爽 , 正是去旅遊的好季節.我們第一站是與廖醫師夫婦會合 , 同遊麒麟潭及溪頭 , 麒麟潭在凍頂烏龍茶的出產地-凍頂 , 麒麟潭從某一個角度看，有一點像是歐洲的鄉村風光，廖醫師用他的專業相機替我們拍下不少美景 .

 

溪頭的美，自是不在話下，媽媽以將近80的高齡，和我們這些中老年的子女，走將近6 公里的路，讓不少50多歲的人羨慕不已。

 

第二站我們前往十多年未去的日月潭 ,入住我抽獎抽中的五星級雲品溫泉飯店 , 雲品真不愧是五星級的飯店 ,入住以後，DJ Shieh共泡了三次溫泉 , 從 hotel看出窗外的view，簡直就是一幅活生生的山水畫 , 旅館下方有一條長長的環湖的boardwalk , 有一段竟然有漂浮的野薑花島放置水中 , 創意十足 . 黃昏時在此散步, 日月潭分外美分外香 , 就是這六星級的黃昏散步讓我明年還想再來 .

 

十分瀑布

十分瀑布在十分風景區內.
十分風景區有青山 有碧綠的溪流 有吊橋 有瀑布 , 一下車就令人眼睛一亮 , 我們是自己開車去的 ,但其實坐火車會更悠閒 . (先坐往基隆的火車, 在瑞芳下車 , 轉乘平溪支線的火車在十分站下車. )
去十分瀑布可順便到天燈的故鄉平溪老街一遊 , 可說是一石二鳥之遊.
十分瀑布本身很不錯 , 氣勢磅礡 , 只可惜園主畫蛇添足 , 在園內放了不少俗氣的裝飾 , 令人氣結 .

陽明山-松園

 

最近上陽明山避暑,改走菁山路去冷水坑,無意中發現這間餐廳-松園.
松園就像深藏閨中的清秀佳人,有許多令人驚豔的私房景色,用綠.靜.雅.禪.最能形容她的特色,松園供應每客$1000元的創意料理.那日坐在小包廂中聽著輕柔優美的音樂,望出窗外從山邊緩緩上升的皎潔明月,品味著盤中如藝術品般的美食這種經驗令人一生難忘.

野柳

 烏龜石

長這麼大以來第一次去野柳,若非最近住臺北我大概永遠也不會去.
身為臺灣人我覺得非常proud , 我們的風景區真的是精緻優美,廁所也算乾淨不像有些國家的廁所,那種千年之臭會令人disgusting 一輩子.

野柳的特色就是上帝在海邊種了很多杏鮑菇石和香菇石.

臺南之旅

 樹屋

With HSR 台南 is not a distant place any more. The trip from Taipei to Tainan takes only one hour forty minutes by high speed train. The last time I visited Tainan was 34 years ago. So my memory about this city was out-dated and blurred.

Tainan is famous for its snacks and historical sites. one of the must-sees for visitors is 安平 and tree house in 安平.

The tree house was originally 台鹽's warehouse. Since 台鹽 abandoned this compound , the whole house has been occupied by banyan trees. They cling to and go through the wall, wrap around the ceiling , grow into every corner of the house. If going there at night , it must be pretty gruesome.

赤崁樓 served as 鄭成功's office when he governed Taiwan.

鼻頭角公園

 

鼻頭角公園在東北角國家風景區內,沿途風景令人驚喜不斷,山形優美海水深藍,又有各種不同的地形風貌可供觀賞,燈塔周圍的景色更是令人流連忘返,同行友人說帶著點心來此吃早餐或看夕照都是一大享受.我不是early bird所以吃早餐是不可能的,倒是那天可來此欣賞夕陽西下,順便去貢寮吃海鮮.

愛上陽明山

you tube

陽明山是台北市人的後花園,除了冬天太冷外,陽明山都是適合出遊的目的地,尤其是夏天傍晚,在冷水坑或二仔坪健行完全沒有暑意,之後晚餐就享用竹子湖的土雞野菜美食,一星期的疲勞可盡都消散.

福山植物園之旅

I joined my husband's office outing to 福山植物園 yesterday.I heard a lot about this botanical garden in Y-Lan. In my view, it is not as good as we expected.I will rate its beauty as 小家碧玉level. The garden is pretty small in size and flowers are very scarce.It is not worth going all the way from Taipei to visit it.

However, the restaurant we had lunch before going into the mountain was really awesome. What I like about the restaurant is not only the delicious food it served, its decoration , the surrounding, and its service are all first rate.
The restaurant is surrounded by orange and 楊桃 orchards with landscaped rocks and clear stream flowing around. The food is fixed with fresh fruit and other materials, generous portion, wholesome and delicious.

團體照

大屯山自然公園

大屯山自然公園 is a good place to hang out in leisure time ,especially in summer.When Taipei is hot and humid , the temperature there is about 4 degree lower than Taipei.

words of wisdom

one good thing about keeping a blog is that we can easily recall what happen at a specific time in the past by accessing our blogs and our friends can also know what we are doing these days by visiting our blogs once in a while. That is why I urge all friends I know to do the same.
