星期一從高雄飛日本, 週末回台南老家剛好安排一個下午帶第一次來台灣的同事Jeop台南半日遊, 行程從渡小月開始, 孔子廟, 赤崁樓, 大天后宮, 安平古堡, 安平老街, 最後在四草大橋旁的橋頭海灘公園結束行程. 我發現每次帶朋友遊台南我就又更認識了自己的故鄉, 蠻不錯的.
不過啊, 我不再是台南人了~~~ 這是我在進孔廟後深深的體悟~ 台南人在台南參觀古蹟是不用錢的, 所以到孔廟時我和以前一樣拿出身分證給櫃台看... 完全忘了二月份戶口已經遷到台北縣... 雖然櫃檯伯伯人很親切地跟我聊天... 我還是在心裡os... 我想當台南人啦...
古蹟沒什麼變, 假日照舊人山人海, 變最多的算是橋頭海灘公園, 防風林比上次去時又更長大了些, 好多人在衝浪, 沙灘上還有個用木條搭起的儉約棚子, 衝浪客們在門口起了個暖暖的火, 不管是台灣衝浪客還是外國衝浪客, 彷彿都很享受那種家的感覺. 和他們比起來, 我反而比較像是異鄉人. 好久沒有看台南的夕陽了, 坐在沙灘上, 雖然今天雲層太厚夕陽不是很壯觀, 卻還是滿足於回到故鄉的歸屬感.
另一個小插曲是Jeop想買禮物給他的小孩, 但我們一路上並沒有看適合的, 最後他買了一個益智的立體球, 但那難度應該是10歲以上的小朋友才會玩, 所以估計五年內應該都是他的玩具... ha ha.
Since I will fly out from Kaohsiung to Japan, I had the chance to show Jeop, a colleague coming to Taiwan for the first time, around at Tainan for one afternoon. We went to some famous tourist spots. Every time I showed friends Tainan, I felt that I knew my hometown more. It's nice.
However, I just realized that I am not the citizen of Tainan anymore as soon as we entered the first historic spot. Before, as a Tainan citizen, I only needed to show my ID and could enter all the historic spots for free. Since this year I just transferred my household register to Taipei, now I need to pay. Oh... in my heart I still consider myself more as a "Tainanese"...
The historic spots haven't changed a lot since last time I visited. It's still quite crowed during weekends. However, Bridge-end Beach Park has changed a lot. The windbreak forest grew up a bit. There were lots surfers on the beach and they even built up a simple bower with a fire in front. No matter where they came from, somehow they looked like being at home. Although the clouds were too heavy to get a fantastic sunset, sitting on the beach I was satisfied with the feeling of enjoying the time at my hometown.
On the way we paid attention on toys because Jeop would like to buy some for his kids. However at the end he only got a three-dimensional logic ball. Since the ball probably could be played by a kid/adult order than 10 years old, it might be Jeop's toy within the coming five years, I think. ha ha.
