day 6: 150510

Finally we left 台北 after 5 days for 花蓮! the place that we really cant wait to set foot on.
after the 2 hours 7:05 train ride!, we reached 花蓮火車站! and we met up with 呂先生 our cabbie driver! he's like how famous la! cannot book him for our intended date, so have to settle with having him on the 15th. he brought us to deposit our luggages and off we go to 太魯閣!
enroute we stopped to get our 便當 for lunch. it was cheap and good! with soup and drinks included!
proceeded to 斷水清涯 where we first saw 小清水 and followed by 大清水. the ocean is nice. the blue is nice. everything about it is breathtaking.
went into taroko finally. and stopped by various places to go explore. many natural rocks and rivers, rock formations and cliffs. 沙卡噹步道 - 長春橋 長春寺 - 燕子口. the walk every where is tiring. but the sights are really pretty. magnificent beyond description.
then it was the much awaited for fireworks. cos we were a little behind time, ending taroko area at about 5pm, so the latter part was a little rush. he had to rush down back to 花蓮市 where we bought our fireworks stuff and WE HAD OUR FIREWORKS SESSION!
before that, he nicely helped us handle our traintickets problem.
it was really really very nice of him. cos we werent able to get our tix to the next destination for 4 days later. but he went all around helping us see whether we can squeeze out at least 1 or 2 for the 6 of us! in the end, we managed to get tix for all 6 of us. thanks to him as he went to plea with the station master! sigh. feel very bad but very touched.
fireworks were simple and nice! :) first time. enough to wow.
he told us to try 炸彈蔥油餅! he got the person to deliver it to his place, and his wife heat it up for us and we dropped by his place to pick it up! 感動! :) plus it was really very good. the thing is the egg inside is half cook! so when you bite into it.. its like WOOTS :)
dinner was at 9pm. 排骨麵 - 珍珠奶茶 - 小龍包!
back to our hostel - 浪淘沙! and began to unpack and pack for the next day!
(WE DECIDE TO RE-ENGAGE HIM FOR THE NEXT DAY TO GO UP UP UP HIGH!)
