il Giardino Romantico

It's been quite a while since I updated articles in this category. I wish I had more time to go places and share the lovely scenes of Taiwan with the world. My friends had wanted me to join them for a cycling outing for a long time. Finally, we had the chance to actually do this. I like cycling. But before this, I had no idea it could be this fun. Especially when I saw the sunset... 

好久沒更新這個分類裡面的文章囉！我也希望我有更多時間去到處走走拍拍！跟大家一起分享各處的美景。朋友們說要我一起跟他們騎車講了好久，這次終於有機會一起了！其實我原本就喜歡騎車，不過在這之前我真的不知道他能夠這麼的好玩。尤其是當我看到夕陽的時候～


Sunset at Guandu 關渡賞夕陽



I only had a folding bike, so my friend lent me his bike for the day. 

因為我只有小折，所以友人就借我他的車車。



One of my friend's glorious new bike. 

友人之一的閃亮新車。



This is also a folding bike. But apparently a lot more expensive than the one I had. 

這也是小折，但比我的貴粉多辣～


Transformer 變形金剛～

By the time we got to Tamsui, it gradually got dark. We separated into two teams to seek food. As I don't eat pork, beef, nor lamb, choices for dinner was extremely limited. Eventually, we found a place where there was food for me. 

到了淡水，天色已暗。我們分成兩批人馬去覓食。由於我豬牛羊都不吃，所以選擇變得好少！不過最後還是找到方法～


Noodles my friend had order 友人點的擔仔麵


Preserved egg and tofu 皮蛋豆腐


Bean curd strip salad 涼拌干絲


Seawead salad 涼拌海帶絲


Bamboo shoot 筍絲



Turns out, I had no 'main course', just side dishes. But I was still quite full afterwards. 

這裡只有小菜我可以吃。不過吃完還是感覺很飽！


Thirst quenching black tea. 解渴的紅茶～


Dog hiding under the table. 躲在桌子底下的狗狗～


Resting bikes while their master dine. 主人吃飯，車車休息ff


Cute little church 可愛的小教堂


That must be the heart of God. 那應該是上帝的愛心吧！


After a few hours of cycling, this was the reward. 
騎了幾小時之後，這就是買來犒賞自己的！


Taking our bikes on the MRT on the way back. 回程帶車坐捷運

Note: It's NT$80 for both you and the bike. Do take note of which stations you are allowed to get on and off and transfer before actually taking it on the MRT. 

註：人加車80元。不過帶車上捷運之前，請先做好功課–哪一站可以上下車，哪一站可以轉乘，一定要先問清楚喔！  


Or, you can 'dismantle' your bike... 或你也可以把你的車車拆開來～

 
To save you from having to pay for taking your bike, and taking much longer to transfer...
這樣不只能省錢，更能省掉許多轉乘時間（若適用）

天仙念： 繼去年騎了市價兩萬多的吉安特之後，我再次了解為什麼不過是一台腳踏車，也可以貴成這樣...（一分錢一分貨啊！）
