Recently I strolled around the Scarborough Bluffs cliff and looking down from there, I found a beautiful trail by the shore and on the skirt of the cliff. I have a desire at that very moment: to take a walk and sight-seeing along the trail. On 28 September, I visited the cliff again and followed a sign board which led me to the entrance of the trail. It is adjacent to the Rosetta McClain Gardens and facing a seniors apartment. The cement trail extends to the shore of the lake and goes east and west. On this trail, I enjoyed the waves, rocks, dikes, trail, cliffs and plants of the natural beauty of the scenery.

日前在士嘉堡懸崖閑遊，從崖頂下望，發現懸崖下有一條小徑，沿水邊而行。當時產生奇想，很希望可以走到這條小徑，欣賞沿途的景物。9月28日，我重臨崖頂，有指示牌引領我到了小徑的入口處，在Rosetta McClain Gardens 旁，剛對着一座長者大廈。三合土的小徑伸延到水邊，再沿着崖腳湖邊向東及西游走。沿著小徑，我欣賞了潮浪、崖石、波堤、小徑、懸崖、花草等自然美景。
