On the road

The other day, I wrote on my blog saying sometimes that I don't know the answer, I just have to believe it...

Lately I've been thinking about a career change... Since life in Canada isn't as easy as I thought and the time I'm away from program management is getting a bit too long to go back. Instead of sitting in front of a desk doing something I don't like, not as good at or not getting as much pay, maybe it's a good chance for me to finally do something I like to do and could be good at!
By doing so, going back to school to prepare myself in the career change will be the next step.

It's never easy to change or start a new page. However, when you still have chance to do so, then your life isn't so bad.

Choices are there, I just need to make my mind and decide, and never regret.

After all, life is full of possibilities and surprises while you are learning.

Share this video with all of you to remind us what we love about traveling:
We like it because we are learning :)

A weekend in Kingston


Kingston

100多年前 加拿大的舊首都,當地有名的旅遊景點,叫 Thousand Islands
1千多個小島散撥在加拿大和美國交接處的湖面

自己介紹沒有別人的好...大家看一下轉貼的資料吧...Thx (我懶)
Kingston Thousand Islands 位於聖勞倫斯河與安大略湖的交匯處,是一個擁有1865個小島的景點,分屬加拿大、美國兩國。千島湖雖說是千島,但實際上湖面共有1865個島嶼,分別落在加拿大與美國的領土中,加拿大約佔千島湖的三分之二,位於聖羅倫斯河(St. Lawrence River) 最美的一段上,有不少美國和加拿大的富翁、藝術家,都被小島與世無爭的生活所吸引而定居於此

總而言之,這就是我朋友Steph和她"性感的"老公(她堅持要這麼稱呼他)現在居住的城市,上次見到她,是三年前我們的婚禮上了,再次相見,大家都非常的開心,重點是,他現在有一個這麼棒的老公,看到朋友這麼幸福,真是件很棒的事!
我,一如往常的,帶上相機,記錄美好~ :)

A walk on the streets

對我來說,窺探是很具有故事性的....

San Miguel de Allende...a small down full of stories 一個充滿故事的小鎮

Because of Muriel & Terry, we went to this small town 4 hrs away from GDL for my long weekend of March. It's in Guanajanto provience, called San Miguel de Allende.
It got touristy because of the beautiful church and the revolution history.

When we first arrived there, we were amazed by the narrow streets and the style of the buildings. You think streets in Taiwan is small? Try driving or parking here. It's kinda European style but since I've never been to Europe, I can't say much about it.



We stayed in a hotel called 'La Mansion Del Bosque'. The owner, Ruth, an 88-year-old American lady, lives in the 2nd floor of the place with 3 cats. Skinny is the youngest and the most curious. He stayed outside of our bedroom watching Coca for a long time.
Other than cats, there are a lot of retired North American staying with us. Every night we gathered in the garden chatting and waiting for the dinner bell at 7pm. Barbara, a nice lady from New York City, over 70 but still can do better Yoga than me. Cindy from Chicago has blond hair. She alway wears a big sunglasses and big earings and talks about her old glories, incl. her Jaguar and the dog bit her nose and ear off so she had to get a nose job. In the hotel restaurant, you have to share the tables with people. So we got to chat with more people, like the tennis couple from Vancouver island who travels around the world to meet their tennis friends and to buy arts everywhere. We even met an dirty old man from Texas asking lots questions about China and finally said 'Does Chinese girl like western man?' Muriel loves the place and already started to plan for her next visit. Kirk and I don't mind to go back someday, either.

Someday when we are older and have more stories to tell :) Posted by Picasa
