8/4/12 今天我们乘观光列车离开高雄市前往花莲，车程 5Hrs 22Min (11:26 - 16:48) 喔！
好不容易我久期待的那天到了！
We depart for 花莲 Hualien on the 環岛之星 slow train around the Island. Initially leaving Kaohsiung east to Pintung 屏东 then we turn South towards Fangliao 枋寮. From there we turn East again and then North towards Taitung 台东 and eventually reaching Hualien.
We first sight the Strait of Taiwan after 屏东 station at the town of Zhen-An 镇安。
After Fangliao 枋寮站 at the town of Dawu 大武 we begin to sight the Pacific Ocean! It feels so amazing that on the same train ride we can experience the sights of both important sea channels.

At the 高雄 station we are thrilled to find this shop called 紙
箱王 with amazing carton paper products. I can't help but want to buy
something to remember. Because of weight issues with bring things back
to Australia I settle on a small Eiffel tower ....
