不知道大家有沒有捐過血呢? 我還記得，我第一次捐血是在16歲的時候；因為台灣規定捐血必須年滿16歲，所以一滿16歲，我馬上就跑去捐血了^^

I donated blood for the very first time when I was 16, in Taiwan, you have to be 16 years old to donate blood. That’s why I do it for the first time at my 16.

想了很久 也計劃了很久 終於在10月10日國慶日 我 白白蘭德和好朋友宅鳥蘭德 乘著火車 踏上了行駛於北迴鐵路的區間車 今天 我們要流浪到福隆 去尋找記憶中的鐵路便當 看看十年過去了 記憶中當年在月台叫賣的鐵路便當 是不是還保留著我所懷念的味道

I’ve been thinking and planning having a train trip for a long long time, finally, my friend Joel and I have our break together on 10^th October. Today we are going to taking the slowest train, self exile to Fulong, to find a 50 NT. Dollar meal box and see if the taste is still remain the same as 10 years ago.

這是台北火車站的紀念品小店 “台鐵本舖” 販賣很多和鐵路相關的紀念品

This is Taiwan Railways’ official souvenir shop “台鐵本舖”(tai tie ben pu) You can find a lot of souvenirs related to the Taiwan Railways.

像是門口的這些木質明信片 (60元)

Like these wooden postcard (60 NT. Dollars)

隔壁是販賣台鐵自製便當的賣店 便當本舖 今天因為是假日 所以只供應排骨便當 (60元) 我小時候每次坐火車都一定吵著要爸媽買一個給我吃

Next to the souvenir shop is the concession stand “便當本舖” (bian dang ben pu) selling “排骨便當” (pai gu bian dang, 60 NT. Dollars, provided by TRA Food and Travel service.)

這就是台鐵的排骨便當

菜色有排骨(pai gu, pork chop) 滷蛋(lu dan, egg stewed with soy sauce) 青菜(qing chi, green vegetables) 油豆腐(you dou fu, fried bean curd) 蘿蔔乾(luo bo gan, dried daikon)

車裡的人都要滿出來了

當班車抵達貢寮的時候 開始下起雨來

It started raining when the train reaches Gongliao station.

Fulong station^^ look at that bian dong girl, she is selling bian dong at the platform just like what they did in the old days.

觀光客在車站裡就吃起來了

Look! How many passengers having their bian dong in the station, you won’t see this at other station, only Fulong^^

據說這是福隆當地最早開始賣便當的一家店

Some says this is the oldest bian dong restaurant in the Fulong area.

it says "no photo in the restaurent... whatever@@

看看這人潮 全是為了便當來的><

Look at the crowd! They are all line up for that 55 NT. Dollar bian dong!!

這一次我們買了兩家不同的便當 這是鄉野便當

We have two bian dongs from different restaurant, this one from “鄉野便當”(xiang ye bian dong)

這是宜隆福隆便當

This is “宜隆福隆便當”(yi long fulong bian dong)

菜色一樣 Contents of two bian dongs are same contents

滷肉 (lu rou, meat stewed with soy sauce)

豆干 (dou gan, dried tofu)

炒高麗菜 (chao gao li cai, stir-fry cabbage)

滷蛋 (lu dan, egg stewed with soy sauce)

酸菜 (suan cai, chinese pickled cabbage)

雞捲 (ji juan, chicken roll)

香腸片 (xiang chang pian, slice of chinese sausage)

蘿蔔乾 (luo bo gan, dried daikon)

味道? 就像我想的一樣^^ 如果你有機會搭車往台灣東部去 記得在福隆買個便當 但是要快 因為火車是不等人的喔>///<

Taste? Just like what I remember. And if you have a chance to take a train to eastern Taiwan, don’t forget to get a bian dong when the train reaches Fulong station, and you gotta be quick cuz the train is not gonna wait for you!!

這一篇文章，主要是想讓大家看看長大的地方之一；桃園。　桃園這個地方跟台北比較起來，並不能算是一個非常現代化的都市，但是由於距離台北很近，所以有很多在台北工作的人住在這個地方。

我的父親也是因為這個原因，在大約二十年前，在這裡買了第一個房子，並且舉家搬到這個地方來。雖然我十五歲離開家以後，大部分的時間住在台北；但是對我來說，這裡可以說是我心理上的故鄉。

This article is about my home town Taoyuan city. To compare with Taipei city, this is not a modernistic place, but because of this city is near by Taipei city, lots of people who works in Taipei city choose to buy their first houses here, cuz the price here is lower then Taipei city and Taipei County.

Base on this reason, my father has bought his first house here and we moved to this place 20 years ago. Though I’ve leaved my family since 15, and live in Taipei most of the time, but emotionally, this place is still my home town.
