Surf Beach

Surf Beach 是我在澳洲的家,地址真的就是Surf Beach。

走路5分鐘會到海灘,沿途會經過小袋鼠的家,運氣好的時候可以看到好幾隻在山坡上跳來跳去,或是靜靜的待在草叢裡跟我大眼瞪小眼,呈現敵不動我不動的狀態。

 Surf Beach is my home in Australia, the address is really Surf Beach.
 It just took me 5 minutes walk to the beach. And it is wallaby's home all along the way. If lucky enough, I could see several jumping on the hillside, or stay quietly in the grass and stare at me.

下面這張照片有3隻小袋鼠跟1隻兔子。

The picture below shows 3 wallabies and a rabbit.

這片海灘是我在這個島上最喜歡的,她是個超級有魅力,千變萬化的迷人海灘,每一次來這裡都感受到不一樣的氛圍及樣貌,每一次來都有驚喜。

This beach is my favorite on this island. She is an ever-changing, super charming beach. Every time I came down here, I felt a different atmosphere and appearance, and be pleasantly surprised.

有時候天氣熱烘烘的,沙灘暖暖的,天很藍,山丘很綠,炙熱又鮮豔,天氣好的時候這片海灘所有的色彩都非常強烈。

Sometimes the weather is hot, the beach is warm, the sky is very blue, the hills are green, all the colors of this beach are very strong when the weather is fine.

很喜歡這些紅色的岩石,顏色跟令我著迷的陶器一樣。上面毛茸茸的草也是非常可愛。

I like these red rocks with the same color as the pottery that fascinated me. The furry grass above is also very cute.

有時候刮著大風,天空陰陰的,海浪非常的狂野,充滿自然的野性。

有時候很溫柔,潮汐退的非常遠,露出一大片天然岩池,清澈又平緩的岩池是最世界最棒的泳池,頭往海面下一探就好像進入另一個世界,就像在看海底紀錄片一樣,有好多好多東西可以看。

Sometimes the wind is strong, the sky is overcast, and the waves are wild, full of natural power.
Sometimes it is very gentle, the tide recedes very far, revealing a large natural rock pool. The clear and gentle rock pool is the best swimming pool in the world. Looking down into the sea is like entering another world, it's exactly amazing as documentaries, there are so many beauty to explore under the sea.

岩池也是最美的珠寶盒,陽光把波浪照的閃閃發亮,清澈的水底下,繽紛的石塊也閃耀著。

這樣溫柔的日子通常是滿月的時候。

Rockpool is also the most breathtaking jewelry box. The sun shines the waves, and the colorful stones glitter under the limpid water.
Such gentle days are usually the full moon. 

多雲天的美不同於大藍天,厚薄交錯的雲堆疊出深淺不一的藍,配上一點從縫隙流洩而出的陽光,美。

The beauty of a cloudy day is different from the blue sky day. Thick and thin clouds are stacked disorderly, shows the ombre of blue, coupled with the sunlight flows out through the gap of clouds. It is just so enchanted.

這裡的夕陽充滿魔力。

The sunset here is full of magic.

我在這片海灘有很多回憶,第一次是Carolyn帶我來,人生第一次住海邊,站在山丘上被眼前的海景感動到只能一直wow wow wow;

I have a lot of memories of this beach. The first time I went to Surf Beach was Carolyn brought me. First time in life, I lived by the beach. Stood on the hills, I was moved by the sea view in front of me. All I could say was ''wow wow wow.'' 

下班後常常帶Abby來散步,她喜歡去海邊,用她的小鼻子到處聞,有好多東西可以聞,我們會在沙灘上你追我跑,蹦蹦跳跳的,那是我們一天中最high的時刻。

I often took Abby for a walk after work. She loves to go to the beach and use her little nose to smell everywhere. There are a lot of things to smell. We ran after each other on the beach, jumped up and down, which was the most exciting moment in our day.

有時候風很大,天空很暗,海水卻很溫暖,這個時候一定要跳下去游一下,在澳洲南端能感受到溫暖海水的日子很難得。

某次跟朋友一起來,天空灰灰的,我們穿大外套來散步,突然一時興起,直接把衣服脫了就跳進去游呀游,海水很溫暖,我們就這樣被浪沖來沖去,上岸之後冷的要命卻很開心。

Sometimes the wind is strong, the sky is dark, but the seawater is very warm. At this time, I must jump in and swim. It is rare to feel the warm seawater at the southern end of Australia. 
Once I came with friends, the sky was gray, we wore a big jacket for a walk, and suddenly we felt like having a swim, so we took off our clothes and jumped in to swim. The seawater was warm, so we were washed by the waves and have fun. After we got up, it was terrible freezing but we were so happy.

大部分的時候我自己一個人去,沙灘上也是一個人都沒有,我會坐著冥想,或是看書,或是躺著望向天空,看著雲飄來飄去。通常會開始思考一些人生的小煩惱,但思緒很快就會散去,身處在充滿力量的大自然裡,可以深切的體悟到,我的煩惱都是多餘。光是能夠活著,並親眼看到這樣的美景,就是全宇宙最幸運的人。

Most of the time I went alone, and there was no one on the beach. I sat and meditated, or read a book, or lied down and looked at the sky, watched the clouds drifting. I usually started to think about some small worries in life, but my thoughts will soon dissipate. Being in nature and flow by the power of it, I can deeply realize that my worries are all superfluous. I am the luckiest person in the universe to be able to live and see such a beautiful scene with my own eyes.

海水對我來說有種魔力,不管多冷都一定要進去踩幾下,碰到海水的瞬間心情會突然變得很好,沒理由的開心起來;在海裡游泳的時候有種親密又害怕感覺,可以感受到海的力量撼動著我,有時候踩的到地有時候踩不到地,有時候被浪打到在岩池裡東倒西歪,有時候可以躲在海裡,平視海面看著被陽光照的閃閃發亮的波浪。

The seawater has a magic power for me. No matter how cold it is, I must step in. When it washes over my feet, my heart will light up for no reason.
When I swim, I can feel the power of the sea shaking me, dragging me. It's intimate but also scary. Sometimes I feel the ground, sometimes I can’t. Sometimes I hit by waves in the rock pool and lost my balance. Sometimes it just very calm and I can hide in the seawater and enjoy the glitter waves.

所有的照片裡,我最喜歡這一張。是在離開前最後一次跟Carolyn&Abby一起散步,天空不是特別的藍,雲很多,陽光很暖,平常的我看到雲這麼多,就覺得海邊應該陰陰的不好看,不想出來散步,但因為是最後一次,我份外珍惜。到了海邊才發現有雲的日子也這麼美,才發現我有多麼喜歡跟她們一起散步。

希望我能牢牢的記住:不論晴雨都要用心感受活在當下,那個以前沒有,以後也不會一樣的,當下。不論日子過得怎麼樣,都要用心對待我愛的人,因為時間永遠不能重來。

Of all the photos, I like this one the most. It was the last time I walked along the beach with Carolyn & Abby before I left. The sky was not particularly blue, there were many clouds, and the sun was very warm. Usually when I saw so many clouds through the window, I tend to assume the beach won't be pretty, so I stayed at home. Because this was the last time, I cherished it. When we arrived at the beach, I found that the days with clouds were so beautiful, and I realized how much beautiful walk I have missed and how much I like to walk with them.
  
I hope that I could profoundly remember: no matter weather is sunny or not, I must feel and live in the present moment. No matter how life goes, treat the person I love with the whole heart because moments can never be repeated. The moment I never had before, and won't be the same ever after.

每次從海邊回家心情都會變得很開朗,不管原本是帶著什麼樣的心情出發。

Every time I went home from the beach, my heart was bright, no matter what kind of mood I started out with.
