台灣中部行 Central/Southern Taiwan
06.08.25-30
We spent a few days up in the mountains of central Taiwan, enjoyed the spectacular views of highland woods. We made a song to memorise our trip...."Mommy lioness, Sophie, Greta, Alishan hiking, happy all around. Red cypress trees, two thousand three hundred years old, forty-five meters high, up in the sky, so beautiful.....".
Driving around the mountains can be dangerous and on every turn in the fog, I thank the Lord for keeping us safe. The small wooden house in ZhingGian, gigantic tress in Alishan, wood-hiking in Fengzihu and Hehuanshan are all impressirve in their own ways.
今年的暑假,我們選了台灣中南部作旅行的目的地。
早上由香港直飛高雄,大約十一時許,己從租車公司提取車子往奮起湖進發。在東山站休息及吃中
午飯再出發,就開始下起雨來了。原來,台灣夏天的山區下午是可以下很大的雨呢！但在早上,可以是萬里無雲。
我們先住奮起湖，然後再到阿里山，是森林浴的好地方。跟著,我們到清境農場和太魯閣，合歡山,回程經日月潭到高雄。

南嶺國家森林公園 Nanling National Forrest Park in Northern Guangdong, China
06.08.18-21
Nanling is a nature reserve located between Northern Guangdong and Hu Nai, with numerous scenic spots for nature lovers. 南嶺是在粵北與湖南交界的一處自然保護區。景點有親水谷，小黃山，莽山，九重山瀑布群，通天籮地下森林和廣東第一峰‥石坑崆，風景秀麗。
It is the first time that Rick left the family for his own hiking expedition outside of Hong Kong. We feel very pleased that he enjoys his trip thoroughly. Rick stayed in the Orange House! 這是我第一次在境外”行山”，感覺很特別。
住的地方是一間環保飯店﹣﹣「橙屋」，水平算是喜出望外。

沙羅洞 Sha Lo Tung
06.07.22
ShaLoTung this time has a completely different view from our last visit in winter. Not only do you see lots of flies - butterflies and dragonflies, you also get to see mammals that fly - bets! 大暑前一日來到沙羅洞。蔚藍色的天照得各人汗流夾背，1.5L的食水是每人最少的份量。
到沙羅洞，除了一定不會令你失望的蝴蝶和蜻蜓外，還見到了蝙蝠呢！

夜行大埔滘 Night Walk in Tai Po Kau
06.07.05
Quite unexpected to see fireflies in Hong Kong. Only a few of them would be enough to excite you in the silent darkness. Also astonished by the sheer size of an "aged" larva that is palm-size to a child. The close encounter of a huge frog, by local standard, was one of first rewards in this family night walk.

香港仔水塘 Aberdeen Reservoir
06.07.01
Pleasant surprise for all of us in Aberdeen Reservoir. You realise summer is truly back when you see such rich species of animals in one short trip. The fishery and argricultural department is building an insect path for children right at the entrance of the park. Dark black caterpillars lining the underside of leaves, butterflies and quite a few mating couples.
香港仔水塘是港島一處十分之方便就可以到達的郊野。
可能由於兒時在石排灣長大的原故,對這個水塘特別有很多回憶。經常游水的溪澗,沿著引水道的小徑,雄偉的水壩,水塘邊的草地。
以前很少留意這裡的小生物,今次發現原來品種十分之豐富,只是由入口到水壩的一段路已經是目不暇給了。玉帶鳳蝶 Common Mormon; 藍點紫斑蝶 Blue-spotted Crow; 白帶螯蛺蝶 Tawny Rajah; 報喜斑粉蝶 Red-base Jezebel; 沾邊裙弄蝶 Water Snow Flat; 和不知名的甲蟲,蜘蛛,竹節蟲和蛙等。

赤柱 Stanley
06.06.17
A very short walk from the buzzing Stanley market and Murray House took us to a rather quiet spot.
子希今天提議去赤柱"大石頭"旁的小路看一看。這條小路入口在美利大廈旁,標示箸天后古廟和千年古井。從小徑行進,不消五分鐘就到達了。
在觀濤石旁還有一段石級。短短的小徑,一邊長滿了血桐,另一邊長滿了其它植物和野草。發現了不少昆蟲呢!
