il Giardino Romantico

On this rainy August afternoon, we did not need extravagant furnishing, nor elegant teaware, to relief our exhausted bodies.  All we needed, was a simple, plain cup filled with tea, and a bottle of orange juice.  Because compared to our tired bodies, our hearts were were more than satisfied.

八月的某日下雨天，我們不需要華麗的裝潢也不需要高貴的茶具。簡簡單單的白色茶杯以及茶盤，和一瓶柳橙汁，就足以滿足我們疲倦的身體。但是身體上的疲憊，比起心理上的滿足，簡直微不足道。




因為這一天，我們坐在大文豪莎士比亞出生的小木屋外，細細品嚐這趟旅程到目前為止的收穫，並期待著，下一個要探索的地點。

Because we were sat right across from where 'the poet of all ages' was born.  We sipped our drinks, while savoring what we had seen so far, and also filled with excitement with the things we were about to see.




Sometimes, simplicity is the most luxurious form of enjoyment.

有的時候，簡單，也是一種頂級的享受。
