Weekend in Instagram

Valentine's Day Balloon Art

Valentines’ Day weekend was really special for me this year. This year I finally get some couple time to spend the weekend with R without the kids.  We  were lucky that our parents were willing to take care of the kids on our behalf so that we could get the weekend off.

Sakura Flower viewing

I flew off to Taipei to meet up with R and spend the whole weekend with him.  Our first destination was a private Sakura Tea garden where one could admire the flowers.

On Valentines’s day itself we went to Tam Shui and visited the World Chocolate Wonderland which is situated at Tam Shui fisherman’s wharf. It was the first time that we tried out making chocolate lollipops and it was certainly fun.

It was the first time that I tried chocolate infused pasta and chocolate curry rice. It tasted really unique and I’m sure the kids would have loved to have chocolate in everything that they eat too.

 

Waterfall at Shi Fen

Besides  going to the seaside we also went waterfall viewing. I was fortunate to be able to experience this magnificent view  at Shi Fen.  The last time R and I went waterfall viewing was back in 2013 when we went to Jeju on holidays with Tiger girl.

It was off to the seaside again on Sunday as we went to view the unique rock formations off the port of the seaside town of Keelong.

We  visited a few different mountainsides and seasides and were fortunate to see many many different flowers over the weekend.  It was certainly better then only getting a bouquet of flowers to admire.

Will be uploading the rest of the hundred of pictures which I took with my camera over the Chinese New Year break during the end of this week.

How was your Valentine’s Day weekend?

3248km

That’s how far you are away from me.

It’s not that near nor that far.

5hrs by Aeroplane is what it takes for me to travel  over to be with you.   8 hrs if you include travelling and waiting time at the airport.

Living apart on different islands.

Two of us in different cities due to our work and family commitments.

Working hard to be together  and pushing through the daily grinds of life.

Doing our best and giving our all.

Appreciating each other for who we are.

Individuals  joined together through the sacrament of marriage.

Different but yet the having the same ideals and dreams.

Bonded in LOVE.

Striving  towards our common goal a step at a time.

Trudging on even though we may be physically or mentally exhausted.

Both of us on this  life long journey  since we entered the institution of marriage 14 years ago.

A journey that has seen ups and downs.

Tears of joy and sadness.

Births and Deaths.

Euphoria and heartbreaks.

It isn’t easy   for me every time we have to part.

Dealing with the longing and  physical separation only makes my heart ache even more.

Counting down till we next meet
