我們到達向山屋時,又累、又冷、又餓,早就準備好大肆享用一頓熱騰騰的豐盛菜餚了。

晚飯過後,每個人都早早入睡。

隔天早上,黛比和我很早就起床。

我們有一整天的時間可以從向陽山走到距離四公里外的嘉明湖山屋,所以我們大可以慢慢來。

而那天,一些壯麗景觀紛紛呈現在我們眼前!

嘉明湖山屋不比向陽山屋寬敞。

狹窄貼近的空間讓人難以入睡。

廁所在戶外,不過我設法避開了任何夜間漫遊在該區的黑熊。

我們行程的最後一天,早餐是在凌晨三點供應。

接下來,我們便冒險踏入漆黑夜色中,並加腳步走完來到嘉明湖前的最後四·六公里。

隨著黎明接近,天空幻化成美麗的藍色,日光迸出地平線。

燦爛奪目的粉色、黃色、橙色光深深使我們著迷。

就在地平線之下,我們看到了一層厚厚雲海。

嘉明湖瞬間轉化成一面倒映著萬丈光芒的清池。

當太陽終於現身,我們都感覺到得以目睹如此非凡景緻,是何其幸運。
