Motorbike is the best vehicle to travel in Kenting especially in summer time. Riding along the seaside and feeling the sea breeze is one of the unforgettable experience I had in Kenting.
|
Us with the rented scooters (Laxe - the tree hugger -_-) |
|
We were riding along the seaside |
|
We went to the beach after a long ride under the scorching sun. It was great to be in the cooling water after sweating so much! |
|
Dinner settled at Kenting night market |
The next morning, we headed to Taichung, rented a car and drove all the way to Cingjing Farm in Nantou County. Cingjing farm is a place with cooling weather like Cameron or Genting but instead of Casino & plantation, it's famous for its farm.
|
CingJing Farm. The view from our hotel room. Lovely, ain't it :)? |
After checking into the hotel, we rushed to CingJing Farm but we were too late -_-. So we took a detour to the Small Swiss Garden - the Taiwan's Little Switzerland. The garden was decorated in Summer theme hence the bright colors.
|
CingJing Farm is famous for its sheep. |
|
Back to childhood :) |
|
Cute and colorful decorations but Laxe said he couldn't understand why the garden is built in CingJing. But I guess the kids will definitely love it. |

After spending a night in CingJing Farm, we continue our road trip to Taroko Gorge, not really my cup of tea. Mainly cause I was here 4 years ago. We had a walk, took some pictures and drove to the next destination. It was a winding road, thanks to Bin and Laxe for being the driver. I fell asleep in the car 90% of the time :p.
|
In fact, it was a long walk |
|
On the way to Hua Lien |
Hua Lien was where we headed next. Arrived in the evening.
|
I just collapsed on the bed once we stepped into the room. (Please ignore my dirty feet -.-) |
|
Again, had dinner at the night market |
|
One of the highlights in HuaLien and for this Taiwan trip - FIREWORKS! Didn't know what the seller said, we laughed happily or maybe the excitement of playing fireworks legally. |
I have to admit I was feeling quite stressed playing fireworks. All because of this:
|
The right timing, synchronization, and countless tries. SO STRESSED LOR. Some more, this was only one of the words we did. |
I told Laxe, I never felt so pressured in playing fireworks. One mistake, everyone has to do everything from scratch again -.-. BUT, it was an amazing experience! It was like back to school time, those crazy moments with friends :D
Okay la, got to sleep now. Stay tuned for the next post! Hopefully I can fit the remaining in one post :).
We
must go beyond textbooks, go out into the bypaths and untrodden depths
of the wilderness and travel and explore and tell the world the glories
of our journey. ~ John Hope Franklin
