國際部港泰國際教育旅行（B組）：第十一天

當能莎朵水上市場

 

9B　Andy Yen、Andrew Chen、Kelly Hsu、Sandy Chuang、Dami Huang、Stella Han

今日，是我們在泰國的最後一天。但我認為卻是最有趣的一天。首先我們去了水上市場。泰國的水上市場起源於一百多年前，由泰皇四世下令建造，連接了Mekong河和Tacheen河。在水上市場中可以買到許多各式各樣的物品，最有趣的部分是可以和商家殺價。結束玩水上市場的行程後，我們便向火山蝦餐廳及巧可力村前進。他們的特色餐點是火燒蝦子。如下圖，用火烤蝦火花在像火山的容器中爆發，令人瞠目結舌十分有趣。

 

 

 

 

午後，我們繼續坐車，經過兩個小時的車程我們抵達巧克力村。它是一間餐廳，附近有很多美麗的風景和歐式風格的房子，配合泰國晴朗的好天氣藍天白雲十分美麗，吸引同學們在這裡拍照留念。接著，經過兩個小時漫長的車程，我們到了全亞州最大的購物商場—Mega Bangna。這個商場只有兩層樓，但是面積十分廣大，還有著曼谷唯一的宜家傢俱。裡面有許多知名品牌，我們在裡面停留兩小時購物。學校也發給我們兩百元餐卷，讓我們在裡面吃飯。我們這組找到了一間餐廳叫The Pizza Company，價格不貴東西很精緻很好吃。我們最推薦的是他的奶油義大利麵，奶油很濃郁但又不會膩，份量也剛剛好，建議大家有機會來泰國可以來品嘗。這是我們第十一天的行程，這次的國際教育旅行即將話下完美的句點。從一趟旅程中，我們不僅吃喝玩樂，還收獲許多擴大了自己的視野，更讓我們發現了泰國的美麗與熱情。

 

Today is the last day of us in Thailand, but also the best day. First we went to the Floating Market of Menan. It originated a hundred years ago, King Rama IV ordered the construction of this great establishment. It connected the Mekong River and the Tacheen River. On the floating market, we can get a large variety of products and souvenirs. The best thing about this market is that you are able to persuade the shop keepers to lower the price of their good by a lot. After the journey at the floating market, we headed to the Chocolate Ville and a restaurant with their famous roasted fresh shrimp.

The shrimp dish is placed in a covered container, the waiter fired the container and the shrimp start to roast on the platter. After lunch, we went to the chocolate ville on a long, two-hour ride. The chocolate ville is a famous tourist spot in Thailand, it's is mainly a restaurant but also has many great photo taking spots. The buildings are beautifully built. During night time, we went to the biggest shopping mall in Asia. All of us enjoyed and do our last shopping in Thailand. Everyone got a coupon which cost 200 dollars for dinner. We chose an awesome dinner called "The Pizza Company". The dinner served the best pasta ever! We strongly recommend others to try if they come to Thailand. Throughout our twelve-day grad trip, we made lots of beautiful memories, besides having fun, we learned a lot about Thailand's culture :)

大城古蹟與湄南河一日遊

Today, we woke up very early for a trip on the river. We waited for the boat for a long time and the weather was very hot. Everyone was very sweaty. Finally, the boat arrived and we went aboard. There were three floors and there were many dining tables. The inside of the boat was much better than the outside.The view was great and we saw many traditional houses on the shore. There were even fish in the river. I thought that people should protect the Earth more because i can still see many trash in the river. Rivers should be protected, and the fish should have a clean home. I experienced the life of Thailand. At about 10:30, we ate our lunch. The food was very special. There were fried rice,curry, chicken leg, desert, and salad. It was a luxurious meal and I hope to have it again. At last, I need to say that Thailand was a very different country compared to Taiwan. People live beside the river and they also live in a high temperature which made me very surprise. I will miss the boat a lot!

 

In the afternoon, we visited the king’s palace. It was boiling hot in the mid afternoon, but we had lots of fun and saw many beautiful European style buildings and furniture. At one point, all the girls had to rent salons because girls wearing pants aren't permitted to enter some parts of the palace. Lastly, we visited some ancient ruins. The most jawdropping moment was the Buddha shrine that was almost covered completely in tree roots. The only thing sticking out was its head. Overall we had an magnificent day in Thailand.

 

今日，我們在一個明亮的早晨中起床，之後前往美麗的湄南河等著坐上高級的遊艇。天氣相當炎熱，大家都流了不少的汗。終於，在苦等了許久後船來了。登船後我們到處探索，發現船有三層。第一二層為坐艙，第三層為甲板。我們覺得內艙相當豪華而外面的風景也令人迷戀多時。河邊多是泰國傳統建築。但在望著河面一段時間後我感覺到人們必須保護河川，河裡仍有許多垃圾。在約10點30分時我們享用午餐，午餐相當美味，有炒飯、咖哩、炸雞、沙拉、甜點等。最後，我們發現泰國跟台灣真的很不同，我們也很佩服泰國人可以住在這樣的高溫下呢！天啊，我們真的無法忘記這次完美的旅程。

 

下午，我們參觀了國王的宮殿。這是一個炎熱的午後，但我們有很多的樂趣，看到許多美麗的歐洲風格的建築和家具。因為有規定，女生穿褲子是不被允許進入宮殿的。最後，我們參觀了一些古蹟，他們是珍貴的世界文化遺產，還有一尊佛像的頭被卡在樹裡，樹根幾乎覆蓋在佛像上面，只有頭部露出來，這就是有名的”樹中佛“。還有些石像的部位被之前的緬甸人砍掉了，景象非常壯觀。總而言之，我們在曼谷有一個奇幻的一天。

國際部港泰國際教育旅行（A組）：第十一天

大城古蹟與湄南河一日遊

9E　Alex Lo、Tim、Benjamin、Steve、Perry、Yuan、Vincent

 自從來到曼谷後我們的每一天行程都非常緊湊，但我們每一天都過得非常充實。不論是泰國中華國際學校的參訪、古蹟巡遊、還是湄南河的與大城府古都一日遊都非常的有趣、新奇以及富有教育意義。今天一大早準備去搭乘渡輪時天氣非常的炎熱大家都汗流浹背，大家都以為應該是搭乘一般的渡輪而已，但來的卻是一艘非常光鮮亮麗的遊艇而且還配備冷氣，大家都看得目瞪口呆，相信很多人包括我自己在內都是第一次搭乘這麼高級的遊艇。

在趟旅行對大家來說有太多的”第一次”發生了，不論是第一次來泰國、第一次騎乘大象、第一次出國這麼多天或是第一次與同學出遊等等，都是非常美好的經驗以及回憶。在參訪大城府卻克里王朝五世王的夏宮時，我們非常驚訝，皇宮的建築風格、擺飾或是器物都是走中國風。經過導遊講解後我們才知原來所有從中國進口，原來中華文化在東南亞的影響居然這麼深遠。

在大城府古都巡遊時最令人驚奇的是樹中佛，據說這尊佛像顆好後放在菩提樹下經過風化及緬甸王朝的摧殘以及祝融後只剩下頭部，隨者菩提樹的增長佛像的頭就陷在樹幹中了，更巧的是當年釋迦牟尼佛也就是在菩提樹下修行得道的。參觀古蹟時有許多告示牌，包括在與樹面佛拍照時需蹲下以示尊重，可見泰國人對古蹟以及其國人信仰宗教的尊重，這點是非常值得我們學習的。

 

Today, we got up at six o'clock and headed to the pier at meknam river to get to the ancient city of Ayuttaya. This city was the proud of the Ayuttaya empire and also the pride of siam. When we are on the boat, the scene changed from skyscrapers into small and short houses which are the houses of traditional siamnese people. Sailing quietly across the river, we were all dumbstruck by the beautiful scenery and imagined about the ancient people who traveled and traded on this historical river.

Later on, we arrived at the summer palace of king Rama the fifth, most of the architecture are combined by two different cultures, England Barack technique and the imperial Chinese architect, every piece of wood are made in china and sent to Thailand for finishing. Looking at these architectures, we feel respectful to king Rama the fifth. If it wasn't his contributions to the diplomacy of Thailand. Thailand couldn' t have been so industrialized and modernized. Later on, we visited the tower that contained the ”Sarira”, or the Buddhist relic.

Although the temperature was very high outside,  looking at the magnificent tower sparkling under the sunshine, we all felt in awe. Next, we went on seeing the buddah in the tree. This special scene is due to the strength of the roots. Like Angkor Wat in Cambodia. On seeing this scene, we thought about the history of the past . Last, we visited the ruins of the Ayuttaya empire. We saw the ancient empire of the most powerful kingdom in the indo china peninsula. At night, we went to the highest tower of Bangkok to have dinner, we enjoyed the beautiful scenery and interesting musicians singing and playing the guitar. We finished our last day of our trip in this happy ending.

國際部港泰國際教育旅行（B組）：第九天

泰國威爾斯國際學校參訪

 

9C　Shelly、Janet、Wade、Jason、Enderla、Samantha

This morning, we went to Wells International School and had class activity with them. They’re very friendly and it’s easy to fit in with them. We also realized that they can use their cellphone during school time. They used lunch tickets to purchase their lunch, which was fresh and novel to us. The teachers weren’t keeping watch on the students during recess. However, the students at Wells maintained well behavior, which is something we should learn. During PE class, we found out that the sports they play in Thailand are very different than in Taiwan. They prefer volleyball and soccer. They also like basketball like us. Moreover, the Wells teachers and students focus a lot in extracurricular activities, such as musicals, choruses, and traditional cultural performances. Music class in Wells was very exciting. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed it a lot. After we left Wells, we headed back to the hotel of a short rest. Briefly after the rest, we headed to Asiatique. It wasn’t as crowded as the night markets in Taiwan. However, they sell many exotic products, such as fried bananas, specially flavored crepe. Prices here are significantly lower than in Taiwan; beautiful dresses are even cheaper than ordinary clothes in Taiwan. Shortly after we ate dinner, we went to watch a live Thai boxing performance. The lightings and special effects were fascinating. Their moves were synchronized and nicely organized. There was action mixed with comedy, and in the final act, the bride threw a bouquet at the audience, from which applauses erupted. We would be heading home three days later. We would like to appreciate the school and the principle for the opportunity to learn about Thai culture. The nicely scheduled events were very interesting, allowing us to learn with ease. This trip has certainly been an unforgettable one.

 

今天早上，我們去WELLS國際學校跟他們一起上課，他們非常友善而且容易親近，我們同時發現他們可以在學校使用手機，他們學校午餐用餐卷來購買食物，十分有趣。下課時雖然老師不會管他們，但他們也能自律，這點非常值得學習。當我們在上體育課時發現他們的運動項目和我們很不同，他們比較重視排球和足球，但是和我們一樣，他們也喜歡打籃球，另外，他們還很重視一些多元的活動 像是歌舞劇、合唱團和民俗技藝，他們音樂課程比我們更要活潑生動。我們離開威爾斯國際學校後，先回到飯店休息之後到夜市。泰國的夜市沒有我們的那麼熱鬧，不過他們有各式各樣的賣品，譬如小吃有炸香蕉和特殊口味的可麗餅，賣品價格也沒有我們那麼貴。有些別緻的禮服甚至比普通衣服還便宜，接著我們到了泰拳LIVE的表演場地，音效和燈光讓人印象深刻，音效和動作合在一起，還有搞笑的片段。最後表演中的新娘把捧花丟給觀眾，讓全場轟動。

今天是倒數第三天，感謝學校安排這些行程讓我們深入的了解泰國的傳統，不會趕時間排的行程也都很有趣，讓我們可以沒有壓力的學習。這絕對是人生中難忘的經驗。

國際部港泰國際教育旅行（A組）：第十天

泰國中華國際學校參訪

9E　林庭宇、藍紹康、王聖源、陳亮宇、羅兆珩、陳思宇、許之瀚

我們今天即昨天早上去了曼谷學校ＴＣＩＳ，ＴＣＩＳ算是康橋的姐妹校。我們這組今天上了體育課和泰文課。體育課的時候，當時根本就沒有老師在場，但是他們的學生們都很自律，自主地來帶我們上課，這點讓我印象深刻。泰文課時我們學了一些基本的用語，還教我用太文寫自幾的名字，雖然我們大部份的人都忘的一乾二淨，但我們還是覺的泰文自很有趣。雖然ＫＣＩＳ跟ＴＣＩＳ有很多相似的地方，但我們都可已互相學習還有改進。晚上我們到飯店旁的碼頭夜市，跟台灣的不太一樣，泰國的夜市感覺比較高級，雖然很多假貨，但大家還是逛得很開心。而晚上的泰拳秀，不管是坐在前排或是後排，大家都可以感受到那種身歷其境的感覺，現場的音效或是演員的演技都是不可挑剔的，在前排的同學可以感受到刀劍摩擦出的火花，後排的同學則可以感受到音效的震撼。

Today, we visited the same school that we visited the day before, TCIS. TCIS is a sister school, our school’s partner, and invited us to join the students in the class. Our group had PE class and Thai Culture. During PE class, the PE teacher wasn’t at the gym. Even though the teacher wasn’t with us, the students from TCIS came over and invited us to play ball with them. They are very self-disciplined and made a very good impression. During Thai Culture class, we learned a few basic words in the Thai Language. Although most of us forgot how to say the words, we still felt that the language was very interesting. Although KCIS and TCIS have many similarities and differences, we still were able to work together, improve, and communicate easily. At nighttime, we went to the Asiatique, a Thai night market that is very different from those in Taiwan. Although there were many pirated goods, we still had a nice time strolling and shopping. After buying many things, we headed on over to watch a show called ”Muay Thai- The Legend Continues.” No matter where we sat, everyone felt like they were in the show at the scene. During the show, the sound effects were amazing. The actors were very realistic and their acting skills were professional and flawless. The audience in the front could see the fire flakes coming off of the blades every time the warriors clashed, while audience in the back could feel the amazing sound effects and vibration.

泰國威爾斯國際學校參訪

 

 9B　吳桓、黃大瑋、陳培維、楊惟翔、陳禹丞、王傳森

 

一大早就在搖搖晃晃的火車上被熱醒，因為從我們六號車廂及以前的車廂半夜停電，之後在神智不清的情況下整理行李準備下車，到酒店吃早餐。回飯店梳洗，出發往威爾斯學校做交流。

 

抵達了威爾斯學校就看到熱情的校長與主任來到校門口接我們，校長親切的笑容讓我們深刻感受到該校的熱情，到了禮堂與學伴互相見面交流，讓他們帶著我們去參觀威爾斯學校的校園。我們這次帶的學伴都是九年級以及十年級的學生，大多是容易親近的同輩。他們學校還安排了一場舞台劇。雖然說他們只有排練三個禮拜，校長表示他也是第一次驗收成果，但是我們個人覺得他們的表演水準其實相當的不錯。一會兒，我們與當地的學生進行了ㄧ場籃球友誼賽。雖然最後我們輸掉了比賽, 但我們都有儘我們最大的努力去比賽。後來我們還看了威爾斯學校排演的表演節目後，知道說在泰國要看表演之前都要肅立唱國王的歌。晚上我們去看了暹羅劇場，從中了解到泰國文化，今天算是收獲多多的一天。

 

Today we started with a hot shower from the 6th cabin, the air conditioner was gone after midnight. Other cabins before the 6th one had the same problem. After that we packed up our packages and got some breakfast. After returning to the hotel for shower, we went to Wells international school for education exchange.

 

After arrival, the principal welcomed us and bring our exchange partner. His warm smile impressed us and make us feel the school’s kindness. They take us a walk around the school. Our exchange partner are 9th and 10th graders, most of them are eager to talk and very friendly. First our school’s basketball team has a game with their basketball team. Unfortunately, we lost the game. After that we watched Wells musical performance. During the performance we learned that in Thailand they must sing the National Anthem. For our personal experience, we thank that they did a great job. Their principle is very quite impressed with their  work. In the evening, we went to the Siam Niramit (Thai Cultural Show). That was a great show. Before the show, the audience had to sing the national anthem, which interested us. The cultural show let us understand the Thai culture so that we learned a lot today.
