A Journey to Hualien. Wings for Taroko

The wonder and amazement got its pays. After a delicious breakfast, we were out of strength. I lay on the sofa and couldn’t move a muscle for three hours. The warm sun was failed to deliver any power to us. It was about 11:00 when I regain my conscious. In the afternoon, Vincent’s father took us to the famous Taroko National Park.
It was my first time to visit there. The first thing that I saw were high stple mountains with white cutton-like clouds lingered on them. Birds streched their wings and glide in the vallies. The lingered clouds seemed like spider webs, ready to catch my curious heart. Vincent and his father led us to walk a trail along the river. The trail was one to two stories above the riverbank. We passed through small tunnels, encountering falling stones and a big snake! A very splended journey it was. The water was so clear that I saw fish and moss in the river. Ocean blue decorated the deep area of the stream. The five of us took off our shoes and walk on the riverbank. Huge rocks and hurry flow made it difficult to get through. We also steeped in the water, feeling the coolness and calmness that the nature provides. Soft wind blew through our cheeks and took our bad mood away. We looked at each other, the wet and weary but full of joyness creatures. We laugh out loud. We were completed isolated and bathed in this saint place. Our minds were clear due to the pureness not only Gaya but also our fellows gave us. The night secretly occupied the sky while we were stepping home.
