about this restaurant called "Reading In The Mountains" caught my eyes . As the name implies, it is a place, where encourages you to read and relax. After a short discussion with my family,
I soon changed my mind to go there instead of going to Taipei.
From Taichung, it took about one and half hour to get to the
entrance located in Chushan, Natou. Then, it took only another 15 minutes to climb 7.5 km to the destination.
On the way up, the air rustling through the tree refreshed not only
the body but also the mind. Getting there, as soon as we stepped out
of the car, cool breeze and fog drifted by. It's hard to explain how
amazing it was when we were surrounded by all those tea trees and
a great view of that wonderful landscape. For a few seconds, I was so overwhelmed by the joy when the fog drifted by the misty field
that I simply couldn't say a word ...
Maybe it's just like the old song of Kansas released in 1997 said,
"All we are is dust in the wind."
Staying at "Reading in the mountains" somehow makes me
feel that way.

Dust in the wind 的歌詞靈感來自一位美國印地安人的詩
"For all we are is dust in the wind"。
I close my eyes
我閉上雙眼
Only for a moment and the moment's gone
不過是一瞬間，而這一瞬間已消逝
All my dreams
我所有的夢
Pass before my eyes in curiosity
莫名的飄過我眼前
Dust in the wind
風中的塵埃
All they are is dust in the wind
它們就像風中的塵埃
Same old song
同樣的老歌
Just a drop of water in an endless sea
像無垠大海中的一滴水
All we do crumbles to the ground
我們所做的一切終究要回歸塵土
Though we refuse to see
儘管我們不願去面對
Dust in the wind
風中的塵埃
All we are dust in the wind
我們都是風中的塵埃
Don't hang on
別太固執
Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
除了天與地，世間萬物皆非永恆
It slips away
當時光溜走
All your money won't another minute buy
所有的金錢也買不回一分鐘
Dust in the wind
風中的塵埃
All we are is dust in the wind
我們都是風中的塵埃
Dust in the wind
風中的塵埃
Everything is dust in the wind
萬事萬物都是風中的塵埃

Really glad to know someone who shares a similar taste.

When I look a glance at your words, you know Chinese, or somebody help you explain your en chapter. Very beautiful as you write the words, absoping me to take time an appreciate yours.
You choose to go mountain is right! Taipei is not worthy to see, Less nature possesion existed but tall mountain.
Finally, have a good time, Taiwan moutain trip.
