This day, we get up pretty late. (Actually, it's almost the same as usual...) It's almost 10 in the morning, and we began to move on our destination today, the Sun-Moon Lake.
We didn't plan much about today's trip. Just see if there's anything interesting. The Sun-Moon Lake lies on the middle of Taiwan. Geographically, it is the center of Taiwan. We drove for a long time, finally we saw the sign says "Welcome to Sun-Moon Lake." We found the free parking space first. Looks like there were not much people here today. The parking space is empty, it should be hard to park here during the holidays. The time now is over noon. Therefore we decide to find something eat first. We found a restaurant, which has the signboard says the "president fish". We feel very excited to see this sign. What kind of fish could be said as a "president fish"? We traveled far away to be here, we must take a try! We ordered the president fish meal.
Maybe it's late at noon or it's not a holiday, there are very few customers in the restaurant. However, the dishes are pretty good. We were all very hungry, so we didn't spend much time on lunch. Finally, we now trying to keep our trip.
Steping out from the restaurant, we walk along the lake. We walk and walk and walk, finally we saw an old street, which is the path to Swei-She dock. Before the trip, we checked this place on the internet. We could continue our trip by boat.
While we get close to the old street, we saw a five star hotel. Seems like they are having some activities about Mercedes-Benz. Anyway, we stayed at the hotel for a while, and took some pictures over there. With the lakes and the mountains, it's really beautiful.
Along the old street, finally we found the ticket office of the ships. At first, we want to compare of the price, since we don't have much money to waste. However, we asked many people, they all offer the same service and cost the same price. There's no big difference, therefore we just pick one at will and paid for the ticket. At first, I feel it's too expensive, it took us about 300 NT dollar, which is about 10 USD. However, we don't have chances to kill the price. 
We Took some pictures of the dock. Seeing this view, I feel relaxed deeply inside my heart. Man, this is having a vacation!
There are fish in the lake. I wonder is it the same fish as we ate at noon... Seems like the lake is really clean. We live in the city, rarely have chace to see fishes which are alive. Wow... 
Lin and Lee
And it's me~:P
They are so sweet that we could have a cup of coffee while we are waiting for the ship. Anyway, this is how they make business, right?
We are so lucky that the weather is just great. With the sunshine and the blue sky, the heat of the air had made us tired. After 15 minutes, an old man came and asked us to get on board. No way, we are giving our lives to that kind of old man? We tried to convince ourselves, he must have more experience... This is our ship, Mow-Shen No.1
After getting on the ship, we were thinking that do we need to wear the life jacket or something. Actually, there are some life jacket on the ship, but you'll never want to wear them. They looked old and dirty... The old captain is pretty nice, even he's old, we still get to our destination.
Not knowing why, there's a dead fish in the lake, it's really strange to see this in this lake~
This is a sign on our ship, which is "Have fun in Sun Moon Lake" in English. While we were discussing about the trip couple days ago, we never imagin that we are right here, right now in the lake!
Sailing in the lake, moving little by little. Now, we are close to our first step, the little island in the lake. This is the island of the legend of the people lived here hundreds years ago.
This is the island. We got to take a look and see how it become so famous.
This is the introduction of the Sun Moon lake. However, after the wind blow and sunshine for years, some words were unread able, we can see what it's talking about~
It is really special. The island is very small, and there are two trees and some stairs and stones. Outside the island, there is the artifical dock for us to walk on it. In the legend, old people here will offer sacrifices their ancestors on the island.
So far, we've seen the island inside the Sun Moon lake. Next, we are going to a place called Yi-Dashao village. It is a village of people live here in the past. Maybe we could see something surprising over there!
Here we are, the Yi-Dashao village. Actually, this is another dock. It's looks like another old street, there are stores and houses here. Many people still live here.
The captain lead us to a shop directly, and told us we could buy something here. However, we didn't buy anything here, but we took some pictures here!
Later, the captain told us to take a wald around, and arrange the gather time. We found a field here and some people are setting the stage. There's a party here tonight. Also, there will be firework tonight. Wow, we are excited about tonight~This man is good! The weather is hot, and he wear the heavy dress and paint all over his body with dust. I could see the sweat droping from his head~ Of course, we gave him some tips.
Before we go, we tried some wine which made by people live here. It's good! Better than those made in pubs.
We get on board on time. However, only three of us were on time. Lin saw the captain's hat is on the boat. Then decided to take it and take some photos. It's really a lot of fun~
After the ship, we were tired out. But we will not let the great time goes by. We will see the fireworks tonight, but we have no idea about where to go this afternoon. After a small conversation, we decided to go to some places else. As far as I know, there are some beautiful places except Sun Moon lake around here.ps Wow, it took me so long to write this. Anyway, Please wait for the Part IV, thanks~
