I will say to the prisoners, ‘Come out in freedom,’
           and to those in darkness, ‘Come into the light.’
      They will be my sheep, grazing in green pastures
           and on hills that were previously bare.
   They will neither hunger nor thirst.
           The searing sun will not reach them anymore.
      For the LORD in his mercy will lead them;
           he will lead them beside cool waters. 
~ Isaiah 49:9-10 (NLT)

0147. Having Fun

Just two working days after Chinese New year break, I already taking days off to have fun. Well, of course I got invitation from someone else otherwise I will be in the office! But I am not used to go out with those who do not have to work and no plan. It is a challenge to me since I have to work. It was good there was a overall plan, otherwise I couldn't stand it.

We went to Tainan visiting two historic spots and some local foods. But the foods are not what I heard from TV or magazines. Local people took us to dine different taste. We stayed at a friend's apartment in Kaohsiung. The next day, we went to National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium. Because the long distance, we only had half day over there. It was not enough! I want more. So I will find another chance to go there. The third day, I took a long walk around the Love River in Kaohsiung and then headed home first.

I think I should travel with plan myself. I can see my future trips includes Tainan local foods that I didn't get to have this time and visitor attractions, National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium, and other visitor attractions in Kaohsiung.
