淡水金色水岸自行車道半日遊

2/4早上我們坐捷運到竹圍站,
然後走金色水岸的自行車步道前往淡水。
一開始風光就很迷人,
有紅樹林、河口海景及綿延的樹叢,
開闊的天色及宜人的海風令人心曠神怡。


金色水岸全長12公里,從觀山公園到淡海新市鎮

當天沒什麼人騎腳踏車

小小咪牽著推車慢慢走

走到淡水渡船頭時,艷陽高照,還有海鷗飛揚。

The Lyrics of the song "The Rose" and a picture of a white rose

這是士林官邸花園角落的一朵白玫瑰

"The Rose"是我最喜愛的英文歌之一
下面是它的歌詞

The Rose

Some say love, it is a river

That drowns the tender reed.

Some say love, it is a razor

That leaves your soul to bleed.

Some say love, it is a hunger,

An endless aching need.

I say love, it is a flower,

And you its only seed.



It's the heart afraid of breaking

That never learns to dance.

It's the dream afraid of waking

That never takes the chance.

It's the one who won't be taken,

Who cannot seem to give,

And the soul afraid of dyin'

That never learns to live.



When the night has been too lonely

And the road has been too long,

And you think that love is only

For the lucky and the strong,

Just remember in the winter

Far beneath the bitter snows

Lies the seed that with the sun's love

In the spring becomes the rose.
