大旅行回來後胡亂忙了一個月，大部分的事情慢慢和出發前的狀態銜接上了，然後我才終於有足夠的平靜來回憶這段旅程。其實一個月還不夠沉澱一切 － 那些讓我震撼、讚嘆、感動、反省或想念的一切；而且回憶那段時光目前還是一件對自己很殘忍的事，時間無法被挽留是生命最殘酷的本質，尤其當那段時光這麼美好的時候...。這種情緒是我始料未及的，但留下文字是大旅行很重要的一部份，也許完成後旅行的靈魂也能夠安定了，所以即使很難還是得逼自己開始，然後我才能好好的再往其它夢想走。
不知道自己最後會寫出什麼，有些是在旅途中就有靈感想寫的，有些是回來以後醞釀的。如果旅行是一本書，那這就是我的讀後心得，所以大概不會是典型的遊記了。
今天..是33歲的最後一天...
明天..是34歲的第一天..
我要給自己一個很特別的禮物...
給自己一段很棒的回憶..
一段大旅行...
這是目前為止我想完成的計劃中最大的...
時間很長..地區很廣...變數很多...
帶著家人的關心...
朋友的祝福...
神明的保佑...
和自己的勇氣...
我會順利完成旅程..平安回家...
文慧...希望你的34歲還是很幸福..依舊很精彩...
因為接下來的大旅行途中不一定有中文輸入法可以用...
所以開始寫英文..當作練習吧...
如果有人要看中文的可能回國後再補一點吧..
我快搞混這幾天的行程了...XD
This time, Nancy and I have a vacation in Bali.
Yes, Nancy is my partner again.
(Baby, wish you find mr. right soon, then you don't have to travel with me...hahaha)
The 1st Day
5:30 at 15 Mar, I slept late and Akay, my younger brother, waked me up.
We should go to pick up Nancy who still sleeping when I called her XD.
After 5 hours flight and by a half hour shuttle bus we arrived to Club Med in Bali.
It's hot, just like early summer in Taiwan.
GOs passed us wet towel with mint smell and a cup of tea. I began to like this place.
We had a room with a small patio and beutiful view surrounding by trees.
Conventionally, I carried a small luggage bag and Nancy had a trunk.
She started to decorate the room she called "Home" XD.
After a short rest, we decided to explore the resort by taking a walk.
We found the bar near by beach and order drinks.
The bartenders are also GOs who may play little tricks when serving drinks.
While Nancy lay on the chair, I took a walk to beach.
The view of sunset was like a beautiful painting with dreamlike sky, winding coastline and white waves.
The breezes came from ocean were comfortable.
Quickly comes the dinner time, we have dinner in big restaurant.
Bella, a GO in boutique, came and joined us.
By talking with Bella, we started to figure out the role GOs play in Club Med.
There will be many GOs join our meals or invite us to join events on next several days.
Before Bella leaving, she told us there was a MJ show can't be missed in the evening.
So we went to the shelter and took a seat though we want to sleep.
Bella was right. When the music played and the lights turned on, I didn't feel sleepy anymore.
The MJ show was performed by GOs who danced really well.
Bella was also dancing in the show and looked really sexy.
After MJ show, we came an afterparty in the bar where we met Adi and Rizal, also GOs.
Adi is a lifeguard in swimming pool and Rizal is one of coaches in water sports center.
We drank and talked till 2:00 at midnight then back to our room.
I have to get up early tomorrow morning beause I promised Adi joining his power walking tomorrow.
The 2nd Day
I waked up at 7:30 and go to restaurant alone.
A GO joined me but I don't remember his name XD.
I finshed my breakfast quickly beause I don't feel hungry.
The path of power walking is aroung several resort villages, begin from reception and back form beach.
All I remember is the weather was hot and the ocean looked cool XD.
After power walking, I found Nancy by swimming pool, lay on a chair agagin XD .
We went archery. I tried a far target and a bigger bow. I like concentrating on target when archery.
The coach is a cute guy who said "Shoot please." and "Arrow please." all the morning.
He learned chinese with Nancy when I archery.
Before lunch time, we booked spa after lunch.
On the road to restaurant, Adi invited us join badminton game at 16:00.
Then a GO in restaurant invited us join a sushi cooking demo at 14:30.
3 GOs have lunch with us. We had a full schedule when we leaving restaurant XD.
SPA made me sleepy. We were too late to join sushi cooking demo.
So Nancy tried flying trapeze.
She failed at the 1st time and succeeded when tried again later.
I liked her screaming ^O^.
Then we went to play badminton.
I was surprised when Adi shown in court with medals.
Sport event is not just a game but also a competition.
Nancy and I got silver medals and I felt very hungry when leaving court.
There were a funny show at second night.
We drank till midnight again in after party where we met Wayan who played MJ in show.
He is a talented guy, good a dancing and singing. He is also a golf coach.
Time to bed and I was really tired. I planed to go wind surfing tomorrow.
The 3rd Day
I waked up at 8:00 and Nancy was still sleeping.
I registered the lesson of wind surfing after breakfast.
The coach is Popeye. We practiced on a simulator then surfed on water.
Popeye said the wind is just good for beginner.
It is really hard to keep balance on the board and the sail in water is too heavy to pull it.
I was excited when I finally sailed out and back.
Then I tried a bigger sail which can catches more wind and it went very fast.
I was exhausted when leaving water sports center.
In lunch time, Nancy and I tired of asking GOs "Where are you from?" all the time.
We started to ask GO "Can you say thank you in different languages?"
All of them can say "thank you" at least in 5 languages. I like this game, haha.
I learned "merci beaucoup" because the chif said in the opening of show every night XD.
After lunchtime, I took a rest in the room till 5:00 and went swimming.
The water was very comfortable in the evening.
The show at 3rd night was an amazing circus played by coaches of flying trapeze.
In the afterparty, I joined limbo rock with Bella. We worked togather to pass three rounds ^O^.
No exceptions, we drank to 2:00 at midnight and go to bed.
It was the most tired day in vacation. Hope I can sleep late tomorrow XD.
The 4th Day
I didn't want to get up at all XD.
Nancy and I slept too late to have breakfast.
After lunch, I joined a game of table tennis which I didn't play for several years.
The winners of gold and silver medals was two kids who are brothers.
Then Nancy and I went to learn playing golf.
Our coach was Julio who played Justin Bieber in the show on sencond day.
It was my first time to play golf and very difficult to hit the ball.
Nancy and I had a competition and she bit me with score 1:0 XD.
Julio was nice to give both us medals ^^.
BTW, in all GOs we met, Julio was the only one who can speaks thank you in 20 different languages.
It was the last night we stay in Bali.
There was a Bali traditional market in shelter.
There were a traditional dancing and fire show tonight.
GOs prepared a lot of Asian games and played with us instead of playing in show.
Bella and other GO taught me how to make a star and a rice box by bamboo leaves.
It was unbelievable that Nancy found enough players to play mahjong with her XD.
We exchanged Email and FB with GOs and new friends met in Club Med.
It was a wonderful night and I do hope time can be stopped.
Of course we drank and played late till we had to go to bed.
The 5th Day
Finally, Nancy tried wind surfing. I followed her to take photos and hear her screaming XD.
We had lunch with Nicole, Bella, Meggie, Wallace, Liaw Yee and Jit.
Time to go home but I didn't really want to leave.
Please keep in touch with me, all my new friends.

搬完家了...真正的家和部落格的家..
終於有比較安定下來的感覺...
接著就是我的大旅行...
有種好像有一百件事要完成的感覺...
大旅行的變數比我一開始以為的多..
太多無法操之在己的天災人禍在不同的地方發生...
埃及發生革命時..我把行程改到上海..
接下來是日本地震..備案做好..打算靜觀其變了...
我好像越來越習慣面對這些變數了...
也許隨遇而安是最好的方式...
倒數第8天...
又拿了Fruit Gathering出來讀...
緊張的感覺似乎消散了一些...
不求一切盡如人意...
只希望我能把接下來的事一件一件處理好...
我這懶鬼本來是想出去後才開始寫的...
不過有朋友很想知道準備這趟旅行的過程...
所以就來寫一下吧...
準備工作應該會一直持續到出發前吧...
所以這篇文章應該會不定時更新直到我成行...
