il Giardino Romantico

從泰雅達利走到車站約要半個小時。不過那是以我一邊走、一邊享受風景的速度。

It took me about thirty minutes to walk from the lodging down to the bus station.  But that's because of the intermittent stops for photo shots and view enjoyment.

如果回程的風景沒那麼美，也許可以節省十分鐘。約二十分就到了！？

It would probably take a lot less than thirty whole minutes if the view hadn't been so beautiful.





這些是下山途中拍下的風景。

These are snapshots of what kept me from walking too fast.




藝術 Art




裝飾 Decor



教堂 Church





看似遙遠又渺小的老街。

That was where I started my journey, the day before.





在荒廢的收費站的安全島上看見這些美麗的蝴蝶翩翩飛翔。

These butterflies were enjoying their little paradise near a deserted toll station.







照片不夠看。親眼目睹的最珍貴。

A picture is worth a thousand words.  But reality is subliminal.

往回一看才知道，原來我走了那麼遠。

And that was how far I had walked.

這就是上下山的樂趣：你總是在達到目的地後才會發現自己經歷了多麼辛苦的過程。C'est aussi la vie.

I guess that's what making mountain climbing so much fun: you wouldn't know how far you had to walk until you reach your destination.  As it is with life.
