Taiwan - Day 4 (猫鼻头公园 & 爱河) (Part 2)

Our 2nd stop of the day was 猫鼻头公园. The bus journey from Eluanpi park to 猫鼻头公园 was very tiring. Why 猫鼻头公园 ? Because there is rock formation that look like a cat.

猫鼻头公园


The super steep steps up to view the Cat Rock Formation.






The super tired face....


At night we visited another tourist spot, 爱河. It used to be call 仁爱河, the 仁 letter was being washed off the sign board by a storm. Hence it got it name, 爱河.

Quan Yi Fong

Yesterday I saw on news headlines that Quan Yi Fong had filed divorced. Initially I thought it was just some paparazzi news hence did not bothered. During lunch, I were reading My Paper and saw the article on her divorce issue. Her divorce news is true.....

Read her blogShe wrote abt her thoughts, her true feeling. Many pple think she is a very 泼辣 woman, but I think otherwise. To me she is a very strong woman, someone who will admit mistakes, correct it and live on as a better person. I feel sad for her, but if hanging on is unhappy, separating is relieve, then the choice is clear.

Quote from her blog.
我站在一旁, 清楚的看着, 你如何咬紧牙, 忍着痛… 或许是当下的那一阵痛吧? 模糊了你的视线…

你没看到吗? 当你忍痛抬起头时, 你眼前有着无数双手, 准备把你扶起… 其中, 包括那一只, 你紧握了十年的手…

” 站起来就好… 跌倒了不要怕, 洗涤了伤口之后, 给它时间… 因为… 它总会愈合的. 痛过, 才会更能体会所谓的 真.善.美. “

疼爱你的人, 会在适当的时候放开手, 让你自由自在, 追寻你向往的天堂…

Upon reading this few lines, my heart went all out for her.

Busy

Have been very busy with my sidelines lately. My weekly schedule is almost pack!!! Im not complaining, Im happy at least Im busy. Economy will be even worse next year. If this year you already feeling the pinch, next year you are gonna feel the hit. The sun is just abt to set, we have yet to step into the darkest night.

Basically nobody is indispensable in an organisation. Hence everyone have the fair chance of being retrenched. Instead of sitting down and do nothing, I have started my sidelines. Hence life gonna be even more busy when things get on track. Stay tune for my small little biz coming up ya.

为以后铺路. 现在辛苦点是值得的!!!

Health is Wealth

It seriously freak me out after hearing Dad is suffering from high cholesterol and minor choked blood vessel problem. Many pple think that Bypass operation is a minor operation, in fact many pple die during such minor yet deadly operation.

I bought Vit E and some other supplement for him to tk. I insisted he take it on a daily basis until he is due for his next check up. Becos of his 6 pack figure, nobody will believe that my Dad is actually down with such problem, . His cholesterol problem actually is due to his diet problem. Pig trotters and seafood are his favourite!!! Though these supplement aint cheap but Im willing to pay for it. Becos I do not wish to see him going for any operation.

Money is small issues, health is more impt than anything on earth.  

Mom is also going to start taking protein. Im very against slimming products! As she need to lose some weight, I recommend her to tk protein. As it rather feeling after drinking it, hence cutting down on food intake. Good for health and good for weight loss. 喝protein皮肤会变亮喔!!

The way up to Taroko Gorge / 太鲁阁峡谷

I wrote in one of my post on manually opening the way up to Taroko Gorge / 太鲁阁峡谷. Here some picture that I took from their tourist center. Im very impress by the way how they actually open up the way. 我是打中心里的背负他们.

Taiwan - Day 3 (Hotspring Night) (Part 3)

After 1 whole day of journey, we rtn to our hotel. Tonight we are staying at Hoya Hotspring Resort. Something we do look forward to, as not many country do have hotspring. Upon reaching the hotel we smell a very strong "cooking egg" smell. At the side of the entrance there was this 煮蛋区, so we thought the "cooking egg" smell came from there.

Dinner was provided at the hotel, I call for a cup of plain water and the plain water tasted different. It tasted thicker then normal water. I didnt think much and drink it. Even the 泉水 tasted different. I guess its due to the mineral.

When we reach our hotel room. I turn on the tape water, the "cooking egg" smell came out again....... Our room has the facilities to 泡温泉, its big enough for couples to enjoy the 温泉. Then I realise that the "cooking egg" smell is not becos of the 煮蛋区, its the smell of the 泉水.

After I got ready the water, we were ready to enjoy our hotspring. Why is it call hotspring. Becos Its super HOT!!!! We slowly soaked our legs in, then body, after a struggle of 5 mins we then manage to get use to the temperature and sat down in the bathtub.

After 15mins, I suddenly feel that my heart is beating faster and faster, breathe getting tougher and tougher. Hence I quickly clean up and lay down at the bed. My head started spinning and my whole face was red. I heard from the tour guide that, first timer user will get this kind of effect as we do not get use to it. So I was smarter in the morning. I only soaked for 10 mins instead of 15mins. 

We left the hotel with out hair, body and mouth full of "cooking egg" smell. Muwahaha.

Taiwan - Day 3 (Taroko Gorge / 太鲁阁峡谷) (Part 1)

Day 3 of the trip we travelled from Hualien upward to Taitung. We kick off the trip with Taroko Gorge / 太鲁阁峡谷. It was being mention that Taroko Gorge / 太鲁阁峡谷 is one of the most spectacular natural Wonders of the World. The gorge was formed by rapid river waters which cut through the granite and marble. This creates a beautiful, narrow river with waterfalls and patches of mist clinging to the mountains surrounded by subtropical forest.

At Hualien Hotel, waiting for the rest of the member to depart for the day.




First stop at Taroko Gorge / 太鲁阁峡谷 is 慈母桥. This is build by Jiang Jin Guo as a memory to her beloved Mum. By the way she is not Jiang Song Mei Ling's Son.


The journey up the Gorge was rather steep, heard that before was worst. Apparently Jiang Jie Shi was the one who instruct him army troops to open up the way of Taroko Gorge. They did it manually w/o any machinery!!!! Impressive!!!!

Our tour guide do not allow us to walk into the tunnel, as there was tourist being hit to death by falling stones.
