週末晨跑7.7公里，氣溫回升到18、19度，澄清湖畔晨跑真舒服。
你覺得週末是星期六、還是星期天？維基百科説明「周末，又作週末，英文是weekend」，也就是每個禮拜的最後一天，但是每個人看法不同。
「我覺得週末應該是禮拜天」，因為週休二日之後，每週六、日休連，星期一是新週的開始。
「英語系國家」的傳統，星期六是一週的最後一天，因此週末指的是星期六。在另外一些國家和中國大陸，週末包括星期六和星期日。
「基督教經典」中，星期六即一週的最後一天。它是舊約所指的安息日，星期日為一週的第一天，是信徒崇拜(彌撒)的日子。星期一變成新週第二天，有點奇怪呢。
「大、小禮拜」是高雄重工業地區保留至今的傳統。因為工廠忙錄，兩個禮拜才輪到「週休二日」。大禮拜的星期六，澄清湖跑友、遊客特別多。
媲美蘇澳冷泉，北埔冷泉整修中。祗能瀏覽水泥拱橋、吊橋及泡腳池之後，我們一路南下到嘉義。
「檜意森活村」位於嘉義市東區，佔地約有3.4公頃。日據時代阿里山林埸宿舍區，北邊是日籍基層職員的宿舍群，南方則是高級職等的官舍。以傳統的日式工法及採用原材料修復。歷經四年，重現舊時日式宿舍的風貌，並登錄為市定古蹟及歷史建築。
目前保留下28棟木構造歷史建築，進駐各南台灣名店，例如福義軒等。不必購票，非假日遊客不少，我們把握機會瞎拼買年貨。
可惜，早期阿里山木材集散地，北門車站雖然在對面，卻沒時間過去。我們直接前往小原用晚餐後，打道回府。
「太陽彈響群山的音階」。扺達山頭痴痴等候，在日出瞬間，我們屏住氣息，趁幻化五彩亮光閃耀之際，盡情拍照。
「群山是大地的階梯」。沿步道上山，感受精神境界的提升。進入森林之中，滿眼青蔥翠綠。山路崎嶇，樹根、亂石密佈，光影點點搖曳、草木努力地往上伸展。筆直的吉野杉很迷人。步道終點直指「鵝公髻山」。往返要四個鐘頭，時間不過。祗走一段道，我們原路回返。
山的外貌似公鵝頭上的肉冠，鵝公髻山海拔1579公尺。從山上人家標高1200米走道上山最省力。台灣小百岳之一、它是賽夏族南北族群的分界，也是泰雅族人及客家人的生活領域。以後找機會停留兩晚，才有充裕時間攻頂。(2021/2/3)
Continuing the series of Taiwan Scenery postage stamps begun in 2016, Chunghwa Post has released a new set of these stamps on four famous sites in Kaohsiung City. Descriptions of their designs follow:
1. 衛武營 The National Kaohsiung Center for the Arts (Weiwuying) (NT＄6): Located in the Fengshan District of Kaohsiung, the center was designed by the Dutch architect Francine Houben, who drew inspiration from the old banyan trees of Weiwuying. It is marvelously integrated with the surrounding environment, realizing the vision of a national-level arts center that has zero degrees of separation from people’s lives.
2. 美麗島㨗運站 The Dome of Light in Kaohsiung MRT (NT＄6): The work is in the Formosa Boulevard Station at the intersection of Kaohsiung’s Red and Orange MRT lines in its Sinsing District. Created by the artist Narcissus Quagliata, the giant work creates its artistic flourishes with color and illumination. It brings a whole new aesthetic sensibility to this port city.
3. 愛河之心 The Heart of Love River (NT＄15): Located in Kaohsiung’s Sanmin District, this site— “The Heart of Love River”—combines the functions of tourism with flood control and ecological improvement. The East Lake, West Lake, and bridge in the middle together form a heart-like shape. The beautiful lights reflected across the surface of the water create an intoxicating scene at night.
4. 高雄港 The Port of Kaohsiung (NT＄15): Located at the extreme southwestern corner of Kaohsiung, it is the main port and distribution center for Taiwan’s exports and imports, where shipping channels of the Taiwan Strait meet those of the Bashi Channel. Here giant cargo ships, naval vessels, and fishing boats shuttle in and out of the port’s blue waters, as shipments are swallowed, disgorged, loaded, and transferred in the port’s container yards. The busyness of this harbor scene is truly special and a delight to behold!
Personal greeting stamps without marginal inscriptions have been also released along with the stamps, which feature a full set of “Taiwan Scenery Postage Stamps — Kaohsiung City.” These customizable stamps are suited to collect.
