门前花开花落

这棵树就在我们家门前。

去年冬天我第一次到Cardiff时，它是这个样子的。

约三个星期前，趁我们不注意时，它突然开满了一树的花，煞是好看。

可是，这几天风一吹，它就像大雪纷飞般，落满一地的花瓣......

让我想起《葬花赋》里的诗句- 花谢花飞飞满天

我们家虽小又简陋，不过在饭桌前从窗口就能欣赏到花开花落的美景，何尝不是件赏心乐事？对了，到现在我还不知道它是什么花什么树。如果你知道，请留言告知，k?

Our apartment in Cardiff

Dear Mum, sis & tong,

This is our apartment. It is smaller then our apartment in Taipei. There are two rooms but we rent out one room to a member. We have central heating here, so it is quite warm and comfortable in the apartment.

This is dinning table in the living room.

Butsudan is also in the living room.

Kitchen here is much bigger than the one in Taipei.

I have arrived Cardiff

It has been 5 days since I arrived Cardiff, weather here is very cold, abt 9-10 degress. I fell sick the second day I arrived, after taking medicine, I am feeling much better now. Wen Guang said last week is even colder, only 2-3 degree.

Life here is very different from Taipei, everything is so inconvenient here, including buying things (and it is expensive), taking shower, cooking (because it is so cold), disposal of rubbish (they only come once a week to collect rubbish) etc...

It was sunny yesterday, so I managed to take a few pictures.



This photo is taken just outside our apartment, not the one at the back. It is on the right side which is not in the picture.

These three pictures are taken at the street near our apartment.
