<大禮大同之行>準備出發 Taroko trip: Preparation
好吧!我承認,這些義大利人是被我騙上去的…出發之前,我只告訴他們是到山上走走,他們對於自己到底要去哪裡,根本就沒有概念。
All right!! I admit that I got these Italians onto the hiking trip with a trick. Before we left for the trip, I only told them that “we’re going to the mountain for a walk” and they actually had no idea what to expect.
到花蓮的當晚,開始下起雨來。說實在,我心裡也是挺擔心的,畢竟離我上一次健行,也已經好幾年了,加上在義大利也沒有怎麼做運動,也在懷疑自己在體能上是否能負荷。不過,上山走走的心情還是贏過了各種擔心的心情,所以即使天氣並不理想,我們還是決定,隔日照行程出發。
The night we arrived Hualien, it started to rain. To be honest, I was worried. After all, it’s been years since my last hiking, and I don’t actually do any exercise when I am in Italy… I was worried if I could handle the trip physically. However, the desire to go was stronger than my worries. Even though the weather condition wasn’t that ideal for such trip, we still decided to leave as planned.
隔日一早,準時集合。前晚領回旅館的登山背包裡,已經裝近了每個人的私人用品,裝入睡袋、睡墊和一些分配攜帶的共同物品,我的背包大概也有十五公斤左右。
The next morning, we arrived the gathering point on time. We picked up the backpack the night before and brought them back to the hotel, and all the personal needs/belongings were already put into the backpack. We then arranged to put inside the sleeping bag, pad and some shared goods. My backpack weighed at least 15 kilos, if not more.
