Like The Summer Vacation

It is closed to the end of the August. However, the former six weeks after I had gotten back to Taiwan, we merely visited the New Taipei City and Hsinchu. We had never been in Eastern of Taiwan and played the water sports at all. Hence, after released the loaded pressure from the preparation of automation exhibition, we began planning the several activities from now on. Due to the golden week in the middle of September, I intended to put some complementary games into the schedule. For that 8-day trip, we were likely to focus on the area in southern of Taiwan. Furthermore, we had to arrive in Hualien on the first day and stay there for only one day. The viewpoints among the path we will be supposed to miss in the process where consists vast amount of the exclusive elements the summer. Hence, recently, I wish I will be able to visit some area in Eastern of Taiwan and be suitable for summer. What I could think of first are all related to the ocean and beach. I hope I could accomplish entire schedule before the weather get colder and live toward winter without the regret.

The first of all, we had planned to go to Ilan and visited Toucheng where we hadn’t been for over a year. There were great beach for surfing and the castle built on the chill for overlooking the whole plain. They are the remarkable points when we were the student, but we were commonly tired out for the schedule along with the musical festival. Here are still famous nowadays and crowded with vast vanities people playing the water and sky sports altogether. Next, the point we wanted to visit was the Dongao. We had found out the hidden beach last time where less contaminated is, but the cold spring where is famous as well we had missed last time. Unfortunately, this time, although we had found out where we wanted and saw lots of adult and child playing in the artificial pool nearby, the bad weather forced us leaving here. Finally, we went to the Suao by the way and recalled the memory from the past year, then finished the dinner and took the little break in Ilan city. 

The weekend after next week, the musical festival would have been hold at the fulong beach in New Taipei City where is close to Ilan. I hadn’t participated this activity since we had moved to the Taoyuan city. This year, the musical festival had been shifted from the middle of July to the end of September. Most difference we could be aware of is that weather won’t so hot like precious years. My favorite activity in this festival is the band competition. The race had launched two months ago and it would be the finals for the remained ten bands. What the most interesting for this activity is that we could find out or recognize new independent band that had the great performance but we hadn’t noticed. After joining the musical festival, I even watch the video last year to recall the feeling on the stage. 

Because this year we had set off from Taoyuan city where much far from the Taipei City, we chose to drive the car instead of taking the train. Meanwhile, we went to the Toucheng in advanced and change the train to avoid the crowded people. The people on the train were exactly much fewer than another direction as we thought before, though there also much fewer shifts here. Fortunately, we had arrived earlier and we could go to spend time on playing on the beach over two hours. The competition started on the approximately four o’clock. Initially, we could go to the front row and step near the stage. It was a special experience, but I could endure the over loudness music. Thus, we went to eat something around the official vendor area and then chose the appropriate position for lying down on the beach. The moderate temperate and breeze made us feel comfortable. However, due to consider the traffic time, we had to leave here much earlier. I don’t know whether or not it was the last time to participate this activity, but the feeling from here are still unchangeable continuous.
