總是跟米夏爾開玩笑說：「好想當皇后」。不是為了雍容華貴的服飾以及至高無上的權力；我想要的，是站在皇后身旁的那兩個婢女，噓寒問暖打點生活之外，最主要可以無止盡使喚她們輪流替我按摩。嗯，我真的好喜歡按摩，給上一張床、準備好暖氣，只要按摩一開始，就可以沉入無止盡的甜蜜夢鄉裡。

不過，德國的按摩手法與技巧真令人不敢領教；雖然後來很幸運地在慕尼黑找到了喜歡也妥當的SPA店家，可是每回回台灣都還是會到按摩店或是SPA報到，一解舒緩筋骨之疲憊。這次回台灣，在墾丁凱撒大飯店官網上看到了Angsana悅樁SPA的介紹，有著泰國度假小島的氛圍讓人好心動。

I always make jokes that I would like to be a queen, seriously. Not for those elegant yet fancy clothes, neither for the supreme power but someone always stands beside me and gives me unlimited massage service. Well, I do enjoy massage; give me a bed, a well-heated room, as long as starting the massage, I can sink into an endless sweet dream.

However, the German style massage is not a way I relax and enjoy. Luckily, I found one store some years ago that offers a similar service as in Asia. Still, each time when we are back to Taiwan, we try as often as possible to go to massage stores. This time before I have booked our trip to Ken-Ting, I read their SPA service, Angsana on the website; it looked like a wellness villa in Thailand.

悅樁Angsana位在墾丁凱撒園區安靜的角落上，從大廳沿著步道前往是幾處荷花點綴的景致迎接著我們；悅樁的入口是座清水造景水池，在炎熱的墾丁經由緩慢移動腳步轉換情緒，進入園區後溫度似乎也不再燥熱，只清淡地吹拂著午後的徐風。悅樁Angsana果然是比照泰國Wellness度假村的手法與氛圍來規劃，有著世外桃源的氣氛格外讓人放鬆。

詢問了療程與價格，加上新年的促銷折扣，與我們在台北所給付的價格差不多，於是訂購家庭SPA的組合；我們一家在新年第二天著實好好享受了一番。

Angsana Spa is located at a quiet corner in the CAESAR PARK HOTEL; along with a stone trail, in the end, is the entrance of Angsana where decorated with spots of Lotus. They mean it to design the garden with a touch of Zen; that refreshes our mind and cools down the impetuous mood. An afternoon breeze welcomed us. Angsana follows a tradition service from Thailand, everything here is just set properly.

After a short consultation, we decided to take the New Year special offer, a family package that was affordable as we usually pay in Taipei. We were looked forward to enjoying the wellness treatment.

我很喜歡悅樁SPA的諮詢服務。在還沒有決定選購療程之前，一一詢問了幾種不同的按摩之間的差別，也提出了自己喜歡的手法；接待我們的服務人員按照三個人不同的需求、身體狀況與喜歡的香氛建議按摩手法，決定了服務療程後也不再推銷，同時主動提醒我們可使用的折扣優惠。

有別於一般以房間為單位的按摩房，悅樁SPA是以獨棟的Villa另闢出安靜優雅的環境使人格外感到自在與放鬆。Wellness Villa裡有個大房間擺放按摩床位，另外有獨立的衛浴方便更換衣服、清洗，在花園有座半戶外的按摩浴池；空氣裡有著清爽的大自然香氣，讓我們推開Villa大門隨即放下了僵硬的雙肩準備好這天的放鬆活動。

I especially liked the way how Angsana offers information to their customers. Before we decided if we would take any massage offer, we asked many questions to understand the different services. However, the lady was patient to answer all my questions; she also suggested us which treatment would fit us better. Besides, she did not forget to remind us about their special discount.

Different from the general massage, instead of rooms, Angsana SPA has individual villas for customers to enjoy during the treatment. A wellness villa is just like a home, a modern space to relax; moreover, there is an outdoor massage pool in the garden. Sounds great, right? Once we came to our villa, the freest time began.

我們選擇了九十分鐘的舒緩療程，包含了深層去角質、放鬆按摩、泡澡，還有之後的茶點時間。那幾日在台北的工作行程讓我一躺上按摩床馬上沈沈睡去，再醒過來是按摩師喚醒我該沖澡了。我和女兒同一時間做完去角質，兩人進浴室互相幫對方洗背。儘管是年輕女兒的肌膚在去完角質後也更為柔嫩，不用說我這張老皮也是光滑細緻呀。沖完澡再次躺回床上，我不爭氣地又立即入睡；女兒事後偷偷地笑著說，她自己睡著後口水好像都流出來了呢。

按摩之後我們選擇牛奶浴。當天天氣煩熱，在Villa內卻有無比清幽的氛圍，涼涼微風下的露天熱水澡讓人通體舒暢。我和米夏爾聊到，過去一兩年內似乎都沒有如同現下片刻如此放鬆的時刻；深深覺得這次墾丁四天三夜之旅太過短暫匆促，下次不管怎麼安排都得要預留一個星期時間才能好好享受。

We booked 90 minutes treatment which included scrubbing, massage and bath, and then the tea time. My skin looked so soft and glowing after the scrubbing, and the massage made me felt like a new-born child. I hope I did not open my mouth when I fell asleep.

The outdoor milk bath was an unexpected experience. I remember that day was quite warm, took a hot bath made our pores all opened; felt so fresh. Then we realized that our trip was too short, instead of four days, we should stay one week long.

回到了德國依舊讓女兒念念不忘的墾丁之行，除了沙灘玩水的行程，就是悅樁SPA的茶點。我記得那茶真是回甘香甜，在按摩之後常覺得口乾舌燥，這款茶的滋潤口感正好合宜；不過餅乾到底什麼味道已經忘了。因為我才咬了一口餅乾、喝口茶水，女兒不但將她自己那份茶點吃完，還隨即拿起我的餅乾說：「媽媽，這個熱量那麼高，我幫你吃好了。」瞧她露出那賊一般的笑容可以證明我沒有說大話。

那天下午我們就這麼坐在涼亭裡隨意地聊天，說前一晚墾丁大街上的熱鬧，聊晚一點要去吃飯店內的自助餐，摸摸彼此身上滑嫩的皮膚，喝了好幾杯茶。我們都很同意，在合理的服務價格上、自己的能力範圍內，享受生活中的特別時刻是我們都想擁有的選擇。

The tea time after the massage was another unforgettable point for my daughter. The tea was tasty; however, I even do not remember how was the taste of the cookies, my daughter ate all cookies we got. You see the photo above, her happy smiling face; I did not make stories.

We just sat in the garden and talked about anything, to enjoy our free time; about the night market, about the buffet we were going to enjoy in the hotel restaurant, anything that was not important but made us happy. We all agreed that it was worth to enjoy a luxury afternoon in Angsana SPA.

我也幫喜歡動手做的女兒另外加購了香精油蠟燭的手作課。幫我們服務的按摩人員準備了不同的香精油還有器具，一邊從旁幫忙指導、一邊解說；兩個人以中文外加英文替換著溝通，十分有趣。這款蠟燭的蠟油有特殊配方，可以在蠟油降溫片刻之後塗抹在皮膚上，稍加按摩有滋潤肌膚的功效。在洗完熱水澡之後使用，蠟油中精油的芬芳似乎更為持久，一直到隔天早上都還有淡淡的餘香。

Besides our SPA treatment, I booked a DIY fragrance candle mini-workshop for my daughter. It was an unusual experience that you can choose an oil flavor you like and then mix with the special wax. After lighting the candle, you can use the wax to moist the skin. I like to apply it after a warm shower; the flavor lasts longer until the next day.

這次墾丁之行一改以往我對南台灣小旅行的偏見；在地的人文風情有它不可取代的魅力。墾丁凱撒樸實不花俏的服務以及應對讓人感到舒服，悅樁SPA的舒壓療程也讓我們在兩個多小時裡神清氣爽煥然一新。

The trip of Ken-Ting has changed my impression of traveling in the south of Taiwan; the local culture and view have a special charming feeling that you do not find in other places. CAESAR PARK HOTEL has a considerate service attitude that makes you feel like visiting a good friend. Moreover, Angsana SPA refreshed our body and mind; it was an unforgettable experience.

這次南下墾丁我全程使用Olympus PEN-F機身搭配45mm 1:1.8定焦鏡頭紀錄我們的行程。其實這款機身比較適合在城市生活中使用，但是我想挑戰、同時磨練我對這台相機的手感，希望在短時間內上手。沒想到，它的輕巧與聰明的調整模式在任何情況下都十分好操作，不管是空曠的沙灘、陽光耀眼的池畔，或是人潮擁擠的墾丁大街上。

我會說，這是台十分有內涵與深度的相機。它的對焦很快速犀利，卻又包容下所有的細節；不是那種張牙舞爪的凶悍，卻在任何時間內可以替代我的雙眼捕捉下眼前故事與畫面。這篇文章裡的所有照片都經過Lightroom編修，除了調整光線對比之外也增加了個人情緒反應在畫面中的滋味。

I used Olympus PEN-F and the object 45mm 1:1.8 to record my trip to Ken-Ting; it usually would be better to carry in a city lifestyle. However, I would like to give a challenge to myself. Also, I wanted to be used to this camera as quick as possible. I did not expect that Olympus PEN-F is such a smart-designed camera; it is handy to carry and easy to operate in any situation, no matter the poolside or the crowded night market.

I would say, Olympus PEN-F is a camera has a high quality, not only the outside looking but also the essential character. It focus fast and captures sharp images; however, you see all beautiful details that compose the view. It can catch all stories front of me that I would like to record; it seems to be my send pair eyes; however, it is not aggressive to give pressure to the people who are in front of the camera.

I edited all images with Lightroom, not only adjusted the exposure or the contrast but also added my emotion.
