Going home 回家

My journey home starts with a two hour train ride to Zhongli. Actually, that's not exactly right as I caught a taxi to the station first. My 10 minute taxi ride cost me USD6.50, whereas my 2 hour train journey cost me USD5.70.
回家的旅程從這2小時火車到中壢開始。正確來說，旅程應該是從家裡坐計程車到火車站開始才對。 10分鐘的計程車需要6.5美金，但2小時的火車旅程卻只需要5.7美金。

After dragging my cases across the road for 3 minutes, I check into my hotel for the night. It's a small room, has free wifi and a clean bathroom, and only cost USD47. Not bad.
下火車後 ，跟行李箱在路上拉鋸了3分鐘，終於到達旅館。 房間麻雀雖小，但五臟俱全。有免費網絡及潔淨的洗手間，而且只是47美金一晚。不錯。

I noticed there's something by the bedside, maybe someone has left something behind? I took a closer look. Oh! How thoughtful ... 😊 I have an early start at 6am tomorrow, so not going to be needing that.
我留意到床邊一角有一些東西，莫非是之前住客留下的? 仔細望一下，旅館真週到呀... 😊 不過我明早要6點起床， 看來我用不上哩。

What I do need is a nice dinner, and what else could be better than a hot pot on a wet and cold winter evening? This is Taiwan after all.
當然要吃晚餐。 晚上又冷又下著毛毛雨，吃火鍋最好不過， 畢竟這是台灣。

Finally, my journey really starts. Yes, I'm on a visit back home to UK! It's been 22 months since I've been away, and I can't wait to see my family again! See you all from the other side of the world soon!!
我終於要起程。 對呀!我回英國探親! 離開英國已22個月，很期待可以再見到家人。下次跟大家見面我將會在世界的另一邊喔!!
