G4alien's 365 & 1/4 的生活空間

往Sheffield的路上，沿路的雪景，感覺新年真是一場白色的世界，草樹都是白的。

搭Bus在Peak District時，經過一個城鎮叫做Hope，很寧靜，雖然三點左右，已經是夕陽時刻，四周都是霧氣，太陽也顯得像是電影場景，超浪漫的感覺。

I had a very tiring journey in Scotland. This update picture was taken by Ariel's camera while we were on the way to Edinburgh photoshooting for the Parade there. We were like the dead on the way back home and slept as much as we could in the train. 3 days and 2 nights journey in Scotland really tired me out. I think getting aged doesn't really help travelling around.

好幾次去市中心都會看到George Sampson還有其他更年輕的小夥子表演，小夥子們各各輪番上陣跳街舞；可以感受到他們是為生活打工糊口，真是辛苦了。不過紅了之後，若被簽了約，也不會在市中心的街上看到他了。

把高雄夜晚的愛河之心用展開圖來呈現。一回台灣後，老媽就帶我去愛河之心獻寶，我就說我老爸老媽繳的稅都有作用了，把自己家裏後面的公園建的如此的華麗，夜晚的美景都讓我目不暇給，晚上來這裡散步探險，真是會讓人驚艷的美麗公園啊！



一。映在河面上的倒映讓蜿蜒長形的人行橋，像是黑夜裡的銀河，彎形閃爍的光芒在夜色裡顯得氣勢磅礡。

這次回台灣沒時間拍太多春天花卉，雖然我非愛花人，但看到美麗的顏色都會想紀錄下，看看什麼是春天的顏色，用顏色來紀錄季節；用拍照來紀錄霎時片刻。台灣的陽光好豔麗，把嬌艷的花朵都比下了，嬌花敵不過豔陽的照耀，失了色，但卻顯露出嬌弱的柔嫩美感。

用了手機快速拍拍家裏後面的公園，老媽說這是愛河之心，剛好位在我家後面的愛河上，從家裏走到橋上也不過三分鐘的距離，十分方便，每天吃完晚餐就走到這邊散散步，幫助消化一番。等過陣子把相機拍的精細照片再來補上。每天經過都覺得好有景觀設計感～超有藝術氣氛的地方，週末還可以搭著船遊河，老爹要出錢讓我試試搭船經驗，還是省省啦。

前四張照片都是當地的音樂廳與歌劇院（建造於1890年），白天時去看不如夜晚時刻的壯觀，夜晚可以聽到歌劇，然後廣場上車水人馬的穿梭，好不熱鬧。歌廳面對的是一巨型廣場，環繞著各式各樣的酒吧與餐廳，跟老闆等大頭人馬在晚宴過後，都轉戰到當地的酒吧繼續續攤喝酒高歌，聊是非；現在終於理解原來英國人們有多八卦，系上的IB人馬又嘴雜又好玩。

這是從Micklegate Bar那一塊開始的景色，我走上城牆到約克大教堂的一路旅程。






約克是個老舊城市，所以關於靈異鬼魂出沒故事在這一帶總是人們掛在口上的話題。最近約克一直在促銷Ghost Trail（鬼魂追溯系列），大概是應映萬聖節的到來吧，各各知名鬼魂聚集的據點若想參與，在這個季節晚上到約克如招牌所示地點集合，便有專人帶領去探索過去著名的鬼魂出沒地。

I spent one night in York and luckily stayed over a 4 star B&B with very fair price. It's a nice place and only 5 mins away from the city centre. If I go staying over night in York again, I will definitely choose this B&B. Very nice service and especially a very cosy and clean place. Even when I went back to collect my backpack, the owner even asked me whether I'd like to have a cup of tea before catching the train. It's very nice of her. Around Bootham area, there are plenty of B&B. I was quite happy to find this one when there was no vacancies around. There was only one room left and I took it. Again, I was lucky. The pictures were taken by my new mobile. Although the resolution is high, the picture quality is not good. Shame! I should have carry my camera with me.

The Shambles又來了，商店租金超貴的地區，排排列的都是很復古的商店，裡頭的糖果商店還有賣洋茴香糖果咧，一堆奇奇怪怪口味的糖果，還有各式各樣的「茶室」。因為The Shambles位居於市場附近，市場與The Shambles的交界處有家英式傳統的酒吧餐廳Pub，很想去那邊吃吃看，可是每次去都不供應食物了，因為兩點後就沒有餐點了，得等到晚餐我又不會想來Pub了，就怕遇上一堆醉客漢。

在Cardiff的時候，Alvyn拿著相機到處亂拍，我也常常入鏡，平常很少被拍照（小時候通常都是老爹週末帶著相機到處亂拍，照片都是小朋友時期的照片，pose還擺得特別誇張，把自己當成國際知名影、視、歌三棲紅星影后級人物）；長大之後通常都是朋友順手拍拍我，外加旅遊時期都是蓬頭垢面，就不額外丟上自己的恐龍照了，意思一下丟張光影照片，主要我很喜歡城堡從裡往外拍照的光影的呈現。

Hadrian's wall is a magnificent monument of the glorious Roman Empire, spanning 73 miles of some of the most beautiful countryside.

I took some pictures of cows and the view of Hadrian's walk path. The scenery there was really impressive. Ariel and I were lucky to have a good sunshine day to visit this historical landmark, which is one of the English Heritage sites along the wall, chronicling a time of Roman rule in England. Roman around the ruins and absorb 2,000 years of history. Standing there made me feel as if I was vividly involved in this ancient world by exploring the Roman forts, turrets, mile castles and reconstructions that span the wall. It's quite good to visit countryside once awhile. I am so glad that Ariel picked up a good place for both of us to visit there.
