I would like to go to some places to take a walk for a while. After Chinese New Year, I decided to visit Pingxi(平溪) with my cousin on March 1st to 2nd. The easy travel was for clean our bad emotions.
I got up about seven in the Saturday morning and went to buy a rice ball for the breakfast. Then, walked to take the train to Ruifang(瑞芳). It should be a sunny day, but the sun was hided in the clouds. It was not a good day for us. The cable of the trans got a trouble so the trains were delay for a while. My cousin and I arrived Ruifang about eleven thirty (it should be arrived before eleven). However, we arrived Ruifang with many visitors finally. A few clouds was on the sky, and it was a little warn.
The time was almost noon, so we went to hunt some food to feed ourselves. Jeez! My period has just come to me. It was so inconvenient for travel. Whatever, food first. We saw a café sold strawberries with sugar-coating on the stick(草莓糖葫蘆) and other kinds. I told my cousin I would like to have a stick of pickled-plums(醃梅) with sugar-coating(糖衣), and she ordered a stick of strawberries with sugar-coating for herself. Then, we walked around the market but hunted nothing else because we did not want to have any normal meal. (ha ha~)
I sensed I did not drink any water till that moment because of finding out a toilet in the crowed train was much inconvenient. Then, we went to drink something. We ordered two cold drinks without ice from 85oC shop then went toward to the train station. As we have checked from the webpage, I went to buy the one-day tour train’s tickets for us. Unfortunately, they stopped to sell this tour package tickets due to too many people on that day. Oh~ My goodness!!
Immediately, we changed the schedule toward to the guesthouse which we booked before this trip first. We went to take the train to Pingxi where the guesthouse we booked. How many people were!! We were pushed into the carriages by crowed people. Fortunately, my cousin had a seat because she is pregnant. I stood next to her. There was almost no space between persons who stood in the carriages, but all of people were not angry or yelled. Because we were on the train, we felt luck than the people who could not take this train. The train was stopped at every station. I heard some persons out and in. Suddenly, I heard a loud knocked voice. I saw toward to there. A father hugged his daughter in front of his chest due to there were too many people. Nevertheless, the father is very tall. When he hugged his daughter up to his chest, her daughter’s head was knocked against the shaft with hanged ring-pulls. The tears were out of the daughter’s eyes. It should be much painful. Her father said sorry to her and asked her to not cry. The daughter did not cry, even the tears were next to her eyes. Too many people went to there on that day!
