2009 Kenting Trip Day 2

Day 2:

Today was mostly cloudy with scattered showers. Luckily when I woke up the next morning, I could clearly see a rainbow from the window. The scenery is beautiful. I hope time can stop at that moment.

 

 

 

  

We drove to Nanwan (南灣) and stopped at a local breakfast stall. It was recommended by the backpackers from travel forum. Sandwiches and omelettes were yummy. There are different types of omelettes and sandwiches you can choose. I seldom have chance to eat such different style of breakfast in Hong Kong. I like it! 

 

 

2009 Kenting Trip Day 1

Kenting Trip

2009 9.29

Day 1:

It was a heavy rainy day in the morning when we headed to the Hong Kong airport by taxi. Six of us, included me took the flight to Kaohshiung (高雄) using Mandarin Airlines. Most of the passengers seemed to be Taiwanese.  

When we got off the Kaoshiung airport, it was small and quiet. No salespeople appeared to sell their services to tourists like us. I think because most HK people prefer using Dragon airlines.

After having done the exchange currency, we rent a 8-Person Van which was booked in advance and started our journey to Kenting (墾丁). It was told that the best way of travelling within Kenting was using your own transport. 

I was dying to...

Quoted by Old wisdom:

“First I was dying to finish high school and start college.
And then, I was dying to finish college and start working.
And then, I was dying to marry and have children.
And then, I was dying for my children to grow old enough for school so I could return to work.
And then, I was dying to retire.
And now, I am dying...... And suddenly realized, I forgot to live…
To make money, we lose our health. And then to restore our health, we lose our money”

Particularly the last sentence, I can’t agree more. That’s why I decide to learn Chinese Medicine.

Sai Kung dinner

Yesterday, after the ceramic course, I met Pierre and Connie at Hang Hau MTR Station and we took 101M minibus to Sai Kung Town. We suggested going there ‘coz Connie told me she hadn’t been to Sai Kung before. 

After arriving at Sai Kung Town, we took a stroll along the Sai Kung Promenade. It may take an hour if strolling. We just took short distance walking and saw fishermen selling their catches at the pier.
