台南的演出虽然没有台北的盛大，但相比之下却更显温馨！
The performance today was held in The National Tainan Living Art Centre. The content of the performance was about the same as the show in Taipei.

Today, we moved on to the next stop, Yilan. The first place we visited was the Centre of Traditioanal Arts. Here, we could see a variety of traditional arts like puppet play, opera, glass arts, clogs making, charcoal sculpture, etc. There's too many of them and we couldn't finish all of them in a short period of time. So, it would be the "must-visit" venue for our next visit.
接下来，就去冬山清水公园。公园内有一条笔直的水道，人们可以在水道中划船。大家在公园中游走，累了就坐在树荫下憩息。
The following spot was the Qing Shui Park of Dong Shan. There's a straight water course in the park and visitors can row boat in it. We took a walk in the park and rested under the shady tree when tired.

14-09-09 回程5点半就得出发，大家在睡眼蒙蒙的情况下上了开往桃园机场巴士。最后，与我们亲爱的导游道别后，搭上8点20分的的飞机，回马来西亚去咯！
这一趟行程，大家在一起生活了整整两个星期，经历了起起落落的心情，相信大家这一趟台湾行一定感受良多！14天满满的行程，累了身躯，却又丰富了心灵！
最后，要说一声……
再见咯，台湾！
We took off from the hotel at 5.30am! It was so early and everyone boarded the bus with sleepy eyes. After saying goodbye to our dear tour guide, we flied back to Malaysia on the 8.20am flight.
During this journey, we'd been living together for 2 weeks. We experienced ups and downs together with laughters and tears. I believed that every member of the troupe had their own feeling about this trip. 14 days of fully-packed schedule, we wore out our body physically but it enriched our mental and heart!
At last... We had to say...
GOODBYE, TAIWAN!
